About This Book

The story opens with a calculated abduction of a teenage heir by a corrupt lawyer and shipmen who intend to maroon him and seize his inheritance. A courageous young adventurer intervenes and is wounded while the captive is carried aboard an electric ice ship. The narrative shifts to a polar voyage that pits the characters against frozen seas and skies, savage animals, prehistoric beasts, hidden traps, and sudden disasters. Action-driven chapters interweave gadgetry and daring rescues as the protagonists struggle for survival and to thwart the conspirators, leading through escalating perils to a final resolution of the boy's fate.

Ahead, Frank now saw a boyish figure in the midst of a pack of ravenous wolves. He was armed with a revolver with which he was firing into them, while he shrieked to frighten them away. Up to him rushed the ice ship.
