The Dragon At The North Pole (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Daisy caught a brief glimpse of their pursuers over her shoulder. With their long fangs and their bulbous eyes, their humped backs and their gangling limbs, they looked like giant, hairy spiders. The snowy terrain was full of surprises. There were rolling hills and icy ramps leading to sharp drop-offs, which they leapt, flying through the air and landing flat on their snowshoes at the bottom. Now and then, there were breaks in the snow where they had to leap over pools of freezing water and land on the other side without breaking stride. At first the trolls moved slowly, dragging their ice axes behind them. Then they wised up and shoved the ice axes into their shoulder straps. After that, they barreled along on their hairy knuckles, their claws digging into the snow and lending them speed and traction. The gap between them and Jesse and Daisy narrowed. Before long Daisy could smell them, a mixture of decaying fish and steaming tar. “Wait a minute,” she said, gasping for breath. “Stop.”
