"Vicky Austin sails to Antarctica, a gift from Adam Eddington's great-aunt Serena. The politics of imaginary country Vespugia "drive" the plot -- it didn't work for me."
"Loved it! My first book involving the Austin's, I'll have to read the others soon. I'm going to read L'Engle's account of her own trip to Antarctica very soon as well. This was a better version of The White Darkness, I thought."
