"Lions tended to be bossy, unfaithful and short tempered but did look magnificent. That had been Cato, Afro Caribbean, very good looking but she’d dumped him when she found out he was double dating her. Before Cato was Alec; now he was a Swan, faithful, slender and beautifully caring. She had dumped him too but for different reasons. He was too perfect – beside him she felt flawed. Now for the moment she was happy to be uninvolved, but she did wonder if there were any other “creature types” out there that she might be compatible with" [more]

Dr. Linda Kipling has had her share of excitement working as a meteorologist with the Naval Research Laboratory. Twice in four years, she and her boss, the arrogant Dr. Victor Silverstein, have faced international crises requiring heroic action. Now, in 2011, Kipling faces her most formidable foe yet: her only remaining relatives, the Müller family. Debates about climate change continue as two researchers in Greenland mysteriously disappear. Kipling soon comes to a horrific realization: not all observed climatic aberrations are coming from natural variation or an increase in greenhouse gases. Instead, someone is tampering with nature, risking a cataclysmic event that could destroy the world. Her dying father is suspicious; he believes distant relatives in South America are involved. The Müller family was once part of Hitler's inner circle. They escaped from Germany in 1945 with a fortune in gold, and now they hope to alter the world's climate for their own purposes. Kipling must head to Greenland under the guise of familial reunion in order to dismantle the Müller plan and save the planet from a climatic apocalypse. "Paul Mark Tag['s] books never disappoint. He is a gifted writer and knows how to craft a great story. . . White Thaw takes us on a great adventure [involving] global warming [and] poses the question of just how far would a group go to win." -- Simon Barrett, Blogger News Network [more]

Cause of delay in equipment—Fittings of the 'Fox'—Volunteers for Arctic service—Assistance from public departments—Reflections upon the undertaking—Instructions and departure—Orkneys and Greenland—Fine Arctic scenery—Danish establishments in Greenland—Frederickshaab, in Davis' Straits. It is now a matter of history how Government and private expeditions prosecuted, with unprecedented zeal and perseverance, the search for Sir John Franklin's ships, between the years 1847-55; and that the only ray of information gleaned was that afforded by the inscriptions upon three tombstones at Beechey Island, briefly recording the names and dates of the deaths of those individuals of the lost expedition, who thus early fell in the cause of science and of their country.

The Moravian Mission In Labrador Was Attempted Under Circumstances Scarcely Less Discouraging Than Those Under Which The Brethren Were Enabled To Achieve The Moral Conquest Of Greenland, Was Attended With Incidents Still More Romantic, And Blest With A Success Equally Remarkable. But It Possesses A Peculiar Interest To British Readers, Having Been Commenced Under The Auspices Of The British Government, And Promising A More Extensive Influence Among Tribes With Whom British Intercourse Is Likely To Produce A Wider And More Intimate Connection.
