for anybody else who loved amc's the terror. a mix of fiction and non-fiction exploring both the artic and antarctica. i may also throw in some non-polar naval disasters such as the whaleship essex. i have not read all of these but they're all at least on my tbr

There are some phenomenal books on this list. Dark Matter is one of my all time favourites, as is The North Water (and the adaptation of that was also fantastic, I thought).
I still haven’t watched the adaptation of The North Water but I really enjoyed the book. Dark Matter is on my Winter TBR so hopefully I love it just as much.
