Summary:
In Magnetic North an aging warrior and his best friend-perhaps his only friend-ride motorcycles to Alaska, with the ultimate goal of riding to the Arctic Circle. It is a ride that mirrors their lives, a ride that causes old stories, old trials, old darkness to come, once again, through the spinning wheels of the machines they are riding. Morgan is a man who can't give it up. His propensity toward violence has followed him through all the days of his life, and it follows him now. Slade has shared much of Morgan's life, and he has been the one of the rare stabilizing factors in that life. Without Slade, it is clear that Morgan has no guidance, no goals, and no potential for living much longer than his next encounter with... almost anything. And so the two old friends ride out from New Mexico and Colorado-heading north.
