Frozen seas. Vanishing men. A mission on the edge of survival. In the 1850s, Captain Elisha Kane leads a desperate Arctic voyage in search of a lost expedition. As the ice closes in and months of darkness stretch on, his crew faces hunger, mutiny, and decisions that cannot be undone. Tigers of the Ice is a historically grounded novel inspired by real Arctic expeditions of the nineteenth century. It explores the human cost of exploration-how leadership fractures under pressure, how loyalty is tested, and how survival reshapes judgment. Ideal for readers drawn to Shackleton, The Terror, and classic tales of polar endurance. Print editions include original line drawings of key scenes.
