About this ebook
Perfect for fans of Skandar and Wilderlore, this compelling middle grade adventure follows a magical apprentice in a land of ice and snow who must uncover why strange monsters are attacking his fellow apprentices…or else suffer the tragic consequences.
Tundra is the last settlement in a world of ice. Oswin Fields is its only stray—a foundling rescued from the ice who many think is a drain on scarce resources meant for Tundrans. Then Oswin is summoned to Corridor by Grandmaster Yarrow to learn magic, finally giving him a chance to prove his worth.
But Oswin barely has time to embrace his new role before his fellow apprentices start being attacked by monsters. Perhaps even worse, he learns his deceased adopted uncle is considered the most infamous Tundran to ever have lived and might have left followers behind who want to destroy the settlement.
Now grappling with an unwanted legacy and mysterious foes, Oswin must look deep inside himself for the strength to prove he belongs in Tundra.

About the author
Jacob North is a transgender man who was born in southern England and grew up with a longing for magical adventures that centered LGBTQIA+ characters. Struggling to find them on bookstore shelves, he decided to write them himself. When he’s not butchering the Dutch language or holding out for a snowy winter, he’s crafting whimsical worlds with characters who happen to be diverse. The Ice Apprentices is his debut novel.
