Beschreibung

In this fast-paced adventure story set in the Canadian arctic, fifteen-year-old Inuit hunter Nick Thrasher comes face-to-face with a fearsome creature on a routine caribou hunt gone wrong. Part grizzly, part polar bear, this environmental mutant has been pegged the “grolar bear” by wildlife experts. Nick may have escaped this time, but it won’t be his last encounter. Then Nick’s estranged half-brother, Ryan, offers to take him on a rafting trip down a remote part of the Firth River. But when disaster strikes, the two narrowly evade death. They’re left stranded without supplies—and then the grolar bear appears. Will Hobbs brings his singular style to this suspenseful story about two brothers fighting for survival against the unpredictable—and sometimes deadly—whims of nature.
Forced to trust the stranger he calls a brother, can Nick survive the unforgiving arctic—and the monster hunting them?

- Stranded in the Wild: After a rafting trip disaster on the remote Firth River, Nick and Ryan are left with no supplies, no way home, and a brutal arctic landscape to conquer.- Estranged Brothers: Nick is a skilled Inuit hunter. Ryan is a photographer from Arizona. They share a father they barely knew, and now they must rely on each other to stay alive.- An Unstoppable Monster: The grolar bear—a massive, unnatural hybrid of a grizzly and a polar bear—is more than just a random threat. It’s intelligent, relentless, and it has their scent.- Action-Packed Adventure: A gripping wilderness thriller perfect for young adult readers who love outdoor adventures from authors like Gary Paulsen and Jean Craighead George.
Portrait

Will Hobbs is the award-winning author of nineteen novels, including Far North, Crossing the Wire, and Take Me to the River. Never Say Die began with the author's eleven-day raft trip in 2003 down the Firth River on the north slope of Canada's Yukon Territory. Ever since, Will has been closely following what scientists and Native hunters are reporting about climate change in the Arctic. When the first grolar bear turned up in the Canadian Arctic, he began to imagine one in a story set on the Firth River. A graduate of Stanford University, Will lives with his wife, Jean, in Durango, Colorado.
