What a ride?! Part travelogue, part history of arctic exploration, part mystical surrealism, part industrial espionage, part social commentary - and that doesn't even approach a disquietingly in-depth knowledge of container shipping. Should't work, couldn't work - yet it does. Great pace (in fact a bit hard to follow sometimes) with characters I grew very attached to (spoiler, don't get too attached to anyone) all hidden inside a credible (to mind) plot. ( )
