Description
Lee Scoresby's arrival in the Arctic town brings more than just a change of climate. A young Texan balloonist, he soon finds himself at the centre of a brewing storm, as rival factions vie for control of the town's oil and the lives of its residents are forever changed.
As tensions escalate, Lee and his daemon, Hester, must navigate the complex web of alliances and rivalries that threaten to tear the town apart. Meanwhile, a friendship is forged between Lee and Iorek Byrnisson, a bond that will endure through the trials and tribulations of their lives.
This gripping short story is set in the world of His Dark Materials and The Book of Dust, and features two of Philip Pullman's most beloved characters. With its unique blend of adventure, politics, and fantasy, Once Upon a Time in the North Illustrated Edition is a compelling read for fans of the series and newcomers alike.
