<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> Originally published in hardcover in 2007 by Little, Brown and Company. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>The "masterfully chilling" novel that inspired the hit AMC series (<i>Entertainment Weekly</i>). </b> <p/>The men on board the HMS <i>Terror </i>-- part of the 1845 Franklin Expedition, the first steam-powered vessels ever to search for the legendary Northwest Passage -- are entering a second summer in the Arctic Circle without a thaw, stranded in a nightmarish landscape of encroaching ice and darkness. Endlessly cold, they struggle to survive with poisonous rations, a dwindling coal supply, and ships buckling in the grip of crushing ice. But their real enemy is even more terrifying. There is something out there in the frigid darkness: an unseen predator stalking their ship, a monstrous terror clawing to get in. <p/><b>"The best and most unusual historical novel I have read in years." --Katherine A.
