The most advanced scientific enterprise ever mounted, Sir John Franklin’s 1845 expedition in search of the fabled Northwest Passage had every expectation of triumph. But for almost two years his ships, HMS Terror and Erebus, have been trapped in the Arctic ice. Supplies of fuel and food are running low. Scurvy, starvation and even madness are beginning to take their toll. And yet the real threat isn’t from the constantly shifting, alien landscape, the flesh-numbing temperatures or being crushed by the unyielding, frozen ocean. No, the real threat is far more terrifying.

Presented here are the favorites (including many of the adventures of Clovis): "The Open Window", "Clovis on Parental", "The Lumber-Room", "Sredni Vahtar", and more.

The stories in this collection are from The Chronicles of Clovis (1911) and Beast and Superbeasts (1914).
