An action-packed, adrenaline-fuelled near future science fiction thriller

"an intimate techno-thriller about an ecological showdown in an ice-free Arctic... moves swiftly" Publisher's Weekly "Buckell shifts his narrative into overdrive, almost providing his readers with whiplash as they must keep up with his change of pace. This change occurs at the right time and Buckell successfully provides the reader with a book which not only offers action, but also explores the positives and negatives of global warming without too evidently landing on one side of the argument or the other" SF Site "Buckell sails into near future Earth science fiction with gusto" SF Signal "Only time will tell where Mr. Buckell will next ply his novel writing trade, but with Arctic Rising, he's penned an entertaining, thought provoking thriller that could have the wider appeal of some of Michael Crichton's better and stronger novels" SFF World
