Review: Absolute entertainer.
Rating: 4 out of 5

This is what is expected of a thriller- pure entertainment. Intelligent and coherent storyline, lucid but precise narrative, and most importantly great characterisation and vivid imagery. Overall this is more of an action and adventure novel, rather than environmental thriller per se. Lots of guns, bullets and killings, but none of it grotesquely depicted. The vast white and desolate expanse of Antartica is well captured. The ending could have been a little different, in the sense the expectation builds up to a point where all seems to be well and under control, but this perhaps a subjective opinion. Highly recommended.
