Book Synopsis

A frozen world, mighty monsters and spellbinding magic. Journey to the very edge of the world in this INCREDIBLE fantasy adventure. Perfect for fans of Skandar and Philip Pullman . . .

Tundra is the last settlement in a world of ice. Oswin Fields is its only stray, rescued from the Endless Expanse. So, when he’s summoned to the school for ice apprentices, he sets out to prove his worth.
But all isn’t as it seems in this enchanted place. When the beasts begin to strike, Oswin has to risk everything he holds dear. Can he look deep within himself to find the strength to prove that he belongs?

Our Review Panel says...

This is a title that blew me away, and the sequel is my most-anticipated read of 2026. Set on a harsh, frozen world, underdog Oswin is sent to Corridor to become an ice apprentice, but some don’t want him there, and as he uncovers secrets and encounters fierce beasts, he quickly realises his life will never be the same again…
Featuring adventure, excitement, monsters, diversity and secrets!
