Great Bear Lake
Destiny has brought them together...
Young black bear Lusa has left the comfort of the zoo, determined against all odds to make her way in the wild. It is there that she encounters grizzly cub Toklo and a mysterious changeling named Ujurak. Once united, the cubs find themselves on a journey toward a mystical place—if only they knew where.
Meanwhile, separated from her family, polar bear cub Kallik trusts her intuition to lead her on a path traveled by many bears before her. At last the four cubs meet at the sacred Great Bear Lake, a place of peace and healing where bears have been gathering for centuries to celebrate the longest day. But all is not harmonious. Danger lurks beneath the calm surface of the lake, and only if they put aside their differences and truly come together will the young bears have any chance of surviving the harsh realities of the wild.

Three bears...one destiny. Three young bears from different species - black, polar, and grizzly - are separated from their families when they are just young cubs. They find themselves brought together on a perilous journey, where fate is about to change their lives forever, setting their paws on a path toward a future they cannot yet imagine...
In this series by the authors of 'The Warriors', nature and the environment are a backdrop to the adventures of these proud, fierce and intelligent bears. Their quest is not just a physical journey across Canada and the Arctic, but a spiritual journey as they track down what 'being wild' really means, and how they can preserve their way of life for generations of bears to come.
But make no mistake, there are torn loyalties, dangerous situations, and intense battles along the way...
