When Ivan meets Maria Morevna warrior princess, he feels like he has a lot of catching up to do...and inadvertently releasing Maria's arch enemy isn't a particularly good start. This is a world where everything happens in threes;  immortal monsters roam; Baba Yaga is a horse wrangler and where our hero Ivan will prove his worth eventually.

In true Ben Haggarty style, this is a fairytale that's been well and truly hauled from the grasp of pink princesses and fluffy bunnies. The result is sheer fast-paced fun for absolutely everyone aged 7 and over!
