A family’s flight into a wider fantasy world

The second Wingfeather Saga book sends the Igiby siblings north after they learn they are heirs to Anniera and become targets. Their route toward the Ice Prairies brings them through Glipwood Forest, East Ben, and the Fork Factory, while tensions within the family add another challenge to their journey. The fantasy setting extends beyond the main story with a map, interior illustrations, appendices, and a reader’s guide featuring discussion questions and writing activities. Family bonds, sibling conflict, and the weight of a newly revealed heritage shape this installment’s central concerns.

Book overview

ECPA BESTSELLER - Now in paperback! First they found themselves On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness. Now they must make their way North! Or Be Eaten . . .

NOW AN ANIMATED SERIES: Based on Andrew Peterson's epic fantasy novels--starring Jody Benson, Henry Ian Cusick, and Kevin McNally. Executive Producer J. Chris Wall with Shining Isle Productions, and distributed by Angel Studios.

Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby thought they were normal children with normal lives and a normal past. But now they know they're really the Lost Jewels of Anniera, heirs to a legendary kingdom across the sea, and suddenly everyone wants to kill them.

In order to survive, the Igibys must flee to the safety of the Ice Prairies, where the lizardlike Fangs of Dang cannot follow. First, however, they have to escape the monsters of Glipwood Forest, the thieving Stranders of the East Ben, and the dreaded Fork Factory.

But even more dangerous are the jealousies and bitterness that threaten to tear them apart. Janner and his siblings must learn the hard way that the love of a family is more important than anything else.

Full of characters rich in heart, smarts, and courage, North! Or Be Eaten is a tale children of all ages will cherish, families can read aloud, and readers' groups are sure to enjoy discussing for its many layers of meaning. Includes interior illustrations, a map of the fantastical world, inventive appendices, and a reader's guide with discussion questions and writing activities.
