Publisher's summary

From mega best seller Kathryn Lasky comes a stunning new series set in the legendary world of Ga'hoole.

For generations, the noble polar bears have ruled the Northern Kingdoms. But now, their society is on the brink of collapse. A group of power-hungry bears has seized control, and darkness is creeping across the snow.

Cubs First and Second don't know any of this. Although they're twins, they couldn't be more different. First loves imagining stories, while his adventurous sister, Jytte, wants to live them.

When their mother is taken prisoner, the cubs' world falls apart. They know they have to rescue her, but how can two cubs who've barely learned to hunt survive a treacherous journey across the ice? Their only chance is to learn to trust each other - and even more important - trust themselves.

But survival is only the beginning. And soon, these two unlikely heroes find themselves at the heart of a battle unlike anything Ga'hoole has ever seen.

Don't start series No ending

I really did like the entire series I've read all 3 books. if inhad no there was no.ending though I wouldnt have wasted my time The third book is a cliff hanger with no 4th book insight. Books 1 through 3 came out spanning 2017 and 2019. I've throughly looked into finding if and when including Kathryn Lasky website and nothing . So you go through this epic journey with these bears and have no idea what the outcome for them is or Ga'Hoole for matter.

amazing

i loved the story, I couldn't stop listening! but the voices were too similar to distinguish from ne another when it came to the cubs and Svena the mom. other than that the reader's voice is very pleasant to listen to and none of the music got too distracting. and no distracting sound effects either which im grateful for. this was awesome. I always loved Kathryn Lasky in middle school and am so glad to see she hasnt stopped writing and seems to not be stopping anytime soon. I look forward to reading and listening to more of her books in the future!!!
