To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Night the Ice Spoke — Gunnar Eiriksson has been crossing the ice of Hjelmfjord since he was eight years old and is forty-one now, and he knows the difference between ice that holds and ice that doesn't. What the ice is telling him tonight he does not like. He has his brother's three-year-old daughter Astrid on his back, burning with fever, and the south shore where the healer lives is the only direction.
