What to expect

Return to the magical world of the Greenwild ten years later in The Frozen King. Get ready for an epic adventure and a perilous, magical voyage to the ends of the earth in the sparkling tale from bestselling, award-winning Pari Thomson.

Eleven-year-old Annika may be heir to the ocean-ruled kingdom of Iffenwild, but she’d much rather be sailing with her traveling theater troupe than learning how to be queen. But when her beloved uncle Max - the king - returns gravely injured from a secret mission to the Utter North, her world shifts in an instant.

Determined to find a long-lost cure, Annika journeys into the frozen North: a land of towering ice cliffs, frozen seas, and powerful ice magic. But the deeper she ventures, the clearer it becomes that something far darker is stirring. If Annika fails, it won’t just be her uncle’s life at stake - it will be the fate of the entire magical world.

A thrilling standalone adventure set in the award-winning, bestselling Greenwild universe, which has enchanted thousands of listeners across the globe:
