In a place known as The Ledge, a civilization is trapped by a vast chasm and sheer mountain face. There is no way to escape the frozen wasteland without a deathly drop. They know nothing of the outside world, except that it is where The Glacians reside – mystical winged creatures who bring them meagre rations to survive, in exchange for a periodic human sacrifice.
Dawsyn, axe wielder and only remaining member of her family, has avoided the annual culling, but her luck has run out. She is chosen and ripped from her icy home and no one knows what will happen to her on the other side. Murdered? Enslaved? Worse?
With the help of a half-Glacian called Ryon, she is able to escape. But who’s to say that the life below will be any better than the oneshe has run from?
