Description
When her father dies in battle, fourteen-year-old Thirrin becomes Queen of the Icemark, a tiny kingdom forever caught between dangerous neighbors. Thirrin must find a way to protect her people from the most terrible invasion her nation has ever known and do so before the end of the winter snows. The cry of the Icemark is the story of how she rallies her country and and finds some extraordinary allies: Vampires, Wolf-folk and most noble of all, giant Snow Leopards. But it is also a heart-felt tale of duty and sacrifice, of unexpected laughter and awful uncertainty, and of a girl whose friendships are forged in the heat of battle.
