What if one day youâÇÖre walking in the city and suddenly you can see a whole other world tucked into the cracks of your own?Sixteen-year-old Helen Bell understood tragedy better than most kids growing up.

After magical happenings infiltrate her daily life, and a train horn begins calling to her from across the city, she finds herself in the middle of a war of good versus evil.A Soul as Cold as Frostáis Jennifer KropfâÇÖs debut novel, ideal for fans ofáThe Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobeáby C.S. Lewis,áHarry Potteráby J. K. Rowling, andáThe Nutcracker and the Four Realmsáby Meredith Rusu and Ashleigh Powell."Wow, I loved this book! IâÇÖve not read anything quite like it before, and the author pulls it off wonderfully. This book was a magical twist between Narnia, Alice in Wonderland, and Spirited Away, yet somehow read as effortlessly original. The descriptions are vivid and really make you feel like youâÇÖre freezing, trudging through snow, or drinking the best hot chocolate of your life. It was gripping, fast paced and full of action, yet not lacking in heart. Highly recommended for young YA readers upwards."á- USA Today Bestselling author Alice Ivinyaá"ItâÇÖs the Chronicles of Narnia meets Harry Potter.áThis fantastic winter tale is the perfect blend of classic portal fantasy and the magic world co-existing with our own. ItâÇÖs a beautiful reminder of what is truly important in life."- USA Today Bestselling author Astrid V. J.
