I've been reading The Terror by Dan Simmons and enjoying it. About some dudes in the 1800's that go on an expedition to find the Northwest Passage and their boats get trapped in ice. The expedition actually happened and everybody died, but Dan Simmons puts a bit of horror monster influence in their which I appreciate. The novel is bleak as **** and I'm glad I'm reading it during the winter because the descriptions of cold are just profound and I can physically feel it. The book got turned into a series on AMC that I plan to watch after finishing, I've heard it's great.
