<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>On an island cursed by eternal winter, Sylvi agrees to run a late-season haul for a smuggler, but when they reach their destination, Sylvi must decide if she can abandon her cherished solitude and anonymity--and the favor of the icy spirit Winter--to join with the rebels.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>Mad Max: Fury Road</i> meets <i>Frozen</i> in this striking YA fantasy about a rig driver's journey to save her friend</b> <p/> Twice-orphaned Sylvi has chipped out a niche for herself on Layce, an island cursed by eternal winter. Alone in her truck, she takes comfort in two things: the solitude of the roads and the favor of Winter, an icy spirit who has protected her since she was a child. <br> Sylvi likes the road, where no one asks who her parents were or what she thinks of the rebels in the north. But when her best friend, Lenore, runs off with the rebels, Sylvi must make a haul too late in the season for a smuggler she wouldn't normally work with, the infamous Mars Dresden. Alongside his team--Hyla, a giant warrior woman and Kyn, a boy with skin like stone--Sylvi will do whatever it takes to save her friend. <br> But when the time comes, she'll have to choose: safety, anonymity, and the favor of Winter--or the future of the island that she calls home.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Winter, White and Wicked</i> is a story that'll sink into your bones. The world is wholly unique, imaginative, and dangerous, the magic beautiful, but with bite. Dittemore offers a fresh, adventurous tale set in a frozen landscape, complete with a truck that's a character in its own right. I could not turn the pages fast enough."--<i><b>Isabel Ibañez, author of Woven in Moonlight</b></i><br><br>"A fresh, compelling fantasy that will keep you captivated from start to finish! I didn't know I needed a story that was half <i>Mad Max: Fury Road</i> and half <i>Frozen</i>-meets-<i>Ice Road Truckers</i>, but I did, and so do you."--<i><b>C. J. Redwine, New York Times bestselling author of The Shadow Queen</b></i><br><br>"A motley crew takes a dangerous road trip... Cinematic."--<i><b>Kirkus Reviews</b></i><br><br>"A rare mix of equal parts lushly mysterious world-building and heart-pounding action. It will give you all the feels."--<i><b>Maxine Kaplan, author of The Accidental Bad Girl and Wench</b></i><br><br>"A truly unique tale that will leave readers shivering with anticipation for the next installment"--<i><b>School Library Journal</b></i><br><br>"Shannon Dittemore has constructed a wholly unique world in <i>Winter, White and Wicked</i> that you won't find traces of in any other fantasy.
