5.0

One of my favourite novellas. Taking place on a Island in the north it reunites Lee Scoresby and Iorek Byrnison from His Dark Materials. This book acts as a prequel and chronicles their first meeting. It’s a heartwarming tale full of funny quips and intense action. The audiobook brings a whole new level to this already great story, providing a full cast this is a fantastic listen!
