"Skade, the goddess of skiing, is known as one of the best athletes--and a top student--at Asgard Academy. But lately, she's been in a slump. When three giants appear and offer to mend the rift between the worlds by organizing a big ski competition, Skade feels like this is her chance to prove herself again. But much to Skade's embarrassment she's named an alternate instead of a member of the starting team. Aside from Skade's disappointment, something seems fishy about the whole competition. And when the Asgard team finds themselves on thin ice, it's up to Skade to overcome a big fear, save her friend, and show everyone what she's made of!"-- Jacket flap.
