The heart-expanding, soul-nourishing sequel to the internationally bestselling, beloved The House With Chicken Legs!
Marinka loves living in the house with chicken legs that carries her around the world, allowing her to perform her duties as a Yaga, shepherding souls from the land of the living to the land of the dead. It's a huge responsibility and an honor to celebrate the lives of the recently deceased, serve them comforting tea, and send them off through the gate that leads to the stars.
But the house is acting... strange. Almost as if it's ill. And soon, bits of it are being destroyed by the mysterious force beyond the gate. Even more troubling, souls are having trouble passing through.
With the balance of the universe on the line, Marinka goes on a quest to find a legendary healing stone that might be able to set the house to rights and get the gate working again. But the magic requires a great sacrifice to work -- an act of immense bravery even noble Marinka might not have the courage to perform.
