About this listen

A group of 27 scientists and explorers are stranded in Antarctica.

Residing in a station known as Shackleton, they are studying the seismic activity of the region. An eruption of the nearby volcano, Mount Erebus, soon sends quakes throughout the continent with devastating results.

All radio communication has been disabled by the breakdown of the magnetic field. Evacuation is unlikely. No one knows whether they survived the icequake, and their station is now moving two kilometres north each day with the strong aftershocks. They are on their own, with limited food and resources.

Do they stay put and risk being caught in the next series of icequakes and avalanches? Or do they pack up and trek over dangerous territories to the neighbouring station?

Icequake is a gripping prophetic sci-fi disaster novel, full of excitement and danger in every chapter.

Author Ran Out of New Material after Chapter 5

It was free and has a title like a B movie, so my expectations were low. They were spot on. This should have been a 4 chapter novella. I skipped 6 chapters and didn't miss anything when I started back on the last chapter.

Very enjoyable listen the detail allowed me to see and feel the cold and to understand the desperation of their situation

I could see and feel the cold and to understand the desperation of their situation. Good listen good story line.
Let’s all hope that it never happens.

surprised

This was a great book to fall asleep too - my favorite kind - but I didn't fall asleep. It held my interest. and I often was still listening to 2:00 in the morning.

Interesting story about climate change and actually fairly relevant with respect to current events. It's possible to see how much of an imbalance actually exists and why we as a world were so unprepared for Co-vid - things could be worse -

I did enjoy the characterizations as well and the idea of being cold was incredibly a mood of the story telling - take a chance - not half bad-

It could happen.

I loved the story. I hope that it never gets that bad for us. I am not sure how well we would do if the world fell apart.

I went out on a limb to try a different genre and was not disappointed!

Realistic Climate

Book isn’t a brain twister that you have to pay attention to or rewind. It is solid though with characters we think behave how “normal” people would in same situation. No superheroes amazing stunts intelligence enhancements, which makes it all the more believable.
It probably shows how we may all act in a world changing catastrophe that may be all too close in our future. At least in the beginning. The people are isolated in the Antarctic when it happens so no spoilers here, what would it be like back in the world?
Guess you’ll have to read it to find out.

Dated but not bad

Delightful look at what was at the earths last unexplored continent. The background horror show that everywhere else is suffering kept me entertained
Solid read from Tim Campbell

Too many different accents

The accents detract from the story. Too many accents and not done well enough to understand a lot of the story.
