Jacob North Author Event

About Jacob North

Jacob North was born in the South of England and grew up with a longing for magical adventures that centred around LGBT+ characters. Struggling to find them on the bookshop shelves, he decided to write one himself.

When he’s not learning the Dutch language or holding out for a snowy winter, he’s crafting whimsical worlds with characters who happen to be diverse. Ice Apprentices is his debut novel.

About the Book

Book title: Ice Apprentices

Tundra is the last settlement in a world of ice. Oswin Fields is its only stray, rescued from the Endless Expanse. So, when he’s summoned to the school for ice apprentices, he sets out to prove his worth.

But all isn’t as it seems in this enchanted place. When the beasts begin to strike, Oswin has to risk everything he holds dear. Can he look deep within himself to find the strength to prove that he belongs?
