Synopsis

The second novel of the Phileasson saga continues the race between the rival captains Asleif Phileasson and Beorn der Blender, who are competing to sail around the whole continent of Aventuria and earn the title King of the Seas. Their second adventure leads them and their companions to the frozen north and to the legendary Himmelsturm, a tower said to have a will of its own. Both crews soon find themselves in deadly danger as they try to complete the next of the trials set for the contest. The book, written by Bernhard Hennen and Robert Corvus, was published by Heyne in 2016 and follows the opening volume Nordwärts in the series set in the world of The Dark Eye.
