Synopsis

There doesn’t seem to be an end to misfortune in Mia Snow’s life. Her mother died ten years ago, and she’s been dealing with her insane father’s violent fits ever since. One day, as one of these fits controls her father's mind, she runs out of the house in terror and somehow gets trapped in another, snow-filled world. As she enters this new world, Mia finds a woman who promises the help of her son, Ben, as Mia travels across the expanse of Iceworld to see the king, supposedly the only person in Iceworld with enough power to send her home. Surprisingly, Ben harbors an Ice Dragon that will carry them through the sky, and they discover powers that even Mia didn’t know she possessed. A lot of magical things start to happen: hidden doors open, a carving of an Ice Elf, Katie, comes to life, snow angels lift themselves off the ground and fly away, and all of them are caused by something that Mia does. To add to her confusion, the king of Iceworld has long-time grudge against her family. Mia discovers her inner strength as she prepares to overthrow the king, but the only way Mia has a chance of defeating the evil tyrant is with the help of her friends.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Katherine Phillips resides in rural northern Michigan, and she can rarely be seen without a notebook and pen in hand. This is not only a contemporary fantasy book for young adults, ages 12-16, but it was also written by a teen who devours fantasy novels. Iceworld began as a creative writing assignment in 7th grade. Over the years she continued to write, but Iceworld kept calling her back. After rounds of editing, the plight of the dynamic protagonist Mia and plot complications, which unfold secrets, a love interest, revenge and even murder, are ready to capture the fantasy audience. Besides writing, Katherine loves reading, chocolate, the treadmill, music, dogs, and a relaxing day with her family or boyfriend. Those who enjoyed Iceworld may want to follow Mia’s reign in Theros, The Siege of Iceworld.
