'A story of real heroism'
Magnus Magnusson
High above the Arctic circle, two men lie huddled in a
blizzard-blown tent. Abandoned by their leader, ill-equipped, untrained and without provisions, the expedition has already spent six months marooned on drifting ice. Now, at last, they have reached land .. .
A classic, far removed from the heroic fables peddled by
the old school of Arctic explorers'
The Times
This is a horror story which avoids being macabre . . .
Anybody can climb a hill and freeze to death but these
quirky Edwardians were treading in places nobody
had ever walked before'
