Description
Torak has survived the summer and his heart-stopping adventure in the Seal Islands. He and Wolf are together again. But their reunion is all too short-lived.
As midwinter approaches, Torak learns the worst from the White Fox clan – Wolf has been snatched. In a desperate bid to rescue him, Torak and Renn must brave the frozen wilderness of the Far North. They tread a deadly dangerous path as they step into a world of deceit, treachery and lies, and come face to face with the most powerful and feared mages alive. Cruel Thiazzi, the Oak Tree Mage; Seshru the Viper Mage, beautiful and manipulative; and Nef, the gruff Bat Mage – here too is Eostra, the mysterious Masked One – all of them bound by their desire for all creatures to bow before them.
Under the dark wings of night, Torak confronts vengeful ice bears, mistrust, broken promises and a terrifying evil.
Another step is taken on his quest to destroy the Soul-Eaters, but with it comes the burden of an utterly chilling secret of his own...
Chronicles of Ancient Darkness: Soul Eater by Michelle Paver immerses you in a thrilling saga of bravery and destiny.
