Publisher's Summary
"Steeped in a wealth of brooding Slavic folklore, Thrice is a deeply personal story of a reluctant father and the mysterious child in his care. It beautifully weaves a tale of personal survival with a much grander narrative of ill-fated bargains and dangerous magic of the past to tell a story that's both intimate and epic." (Graham McNeill, A Thousand Sons)
Forced out on the road with the boy left in his care, Jovan determines to journey into the cave of the bear — to seek out those that would do him and his boy harm.
It is the boy and his bottomless well of soul-searing magic that they seek.
They would do anything to exploit it.
And Jovan would do anything to stop them.
Thrice is the first book in the Needle and Leaf series. Read by the author.

Atmospheric fantasy with heart
I went into this book mostly blind and I'm so glad I did.
We follow Jovan and his charge Leaf, a young boy he loves like his own as they leave their home after Jovan is sent away after from their home and threats surround them on all sides.
The thing I loved most about this book was the atmosphere Meredith created. The Slavic folklore gave me Winternight Trilogy vibes with a bit of Vikings danger. There are plenty of twists and turns, some I saw coming, some I didn't.
My close second favourite thing was Jovan. He is not at all a man you would think someone would entrust a child to, but he is through and through a good man and the relationship between him and the wise-beyond-his-years sweet Leaf.
It is an extremely quick read. I read along with the audiobook which the author does a fantastic job of narrating. The voices are clear to distinguish between characters and it enhanced the experience.
This reads as a complete story/standalone but I really hope there is more of this series coming soon. I can't wait to read more and see what is instore for Leaf as he grows and find out more about the magic of this world
