COPY ISBN
For sisters Milliken and Mae Mae, their world is the Trench, a massive channel carved into an endless plain of ice and snow. They live by the rules of the Colden Ones or risk death by an ancient enemy. When a hunting trip goes awry and the sisters find themselves being stalked by the relentless Snowman, they must push into unknown territories and learn to rely on each other or face worse than frozen death.
VERDICT Lemire (Sweet Tooth) and Jock (The Losers) create a harsh, frozen world that generates more questions than answers. This first volume sets the stage for deeper mysteries that might be resolved in later issues. The story will appeal to mature tweens and older readers as they follow the young female protagonists surviving in a violent, alien landscape.
