Five Dock, NSW, Australia : The Last Christmas takes us all to the future at the North Pole where ice sheets start breaking into pieces, leading the Arctic life to a sheer devastation. Beneath the spirit of a fantasy adventure Irvine portrays the picture of a fragile North Pole that advances towards its end very fast. Two of Santa’s reindeers, Vixen and Dasher, are busy in their playful acts when suddenly the disaster hits and ice sheets start breaking apart. From a playful adventure it takes Dasher almost to become a prey to death. Somehow, the worst is evaded and Dasher retains his life. After surviving the life-threatening crisis Dasher and Vixen take a stroll around and find a surging silence reigning everywhere. Even the elves stop working at their toy workshop. Soon they notice the worried Santa Claus presiding over a meeting to search the culprit behind this sudden turmoil. They peep through the skylight to see what is going on at the meeting. Dasher’s excessive curiosity makes him stride on the skylight to have a better view, but soon it ends up in a shattered skylight and Dasher’s landing in the meeting room through the hole it creates.
However, the comic notes soon get choked by the grave reality raised by Comet, explaining the pace of danger with which the North Pole is gradually advances towards it obliteration. With an analogical survey Comet shows that there is not even a considerable portion of ice left there compared to what there was in 70s. The fact is made more clear by a striking picture of a polar bear floating on a slice of ice with her two cubs. Ultimately, they discover the culprit that has always been there behind the scene - Global Warming, responsible for all the miseries over the Arctic life.
Only the first chapter of the book has been published as of now, and the first chapter already describes a sustaining crisis at the North Pole. The crisis, however, surpasses the environmental ground and makes the stability of our Christian belief associated with Santa Claus a bit vulnerable. If the North Pole does not exist Santa Claus will be homeless and so will be everyone else there. If such situation comes we really do not know how to celebrate Christmas and how to propagate the idea of Santa Claus to the generations to come.
