BEYOND the ICE WALL by C. Z. Vardley Vegetation killing virus (VKV) has escaped and is destroying civilization after 2026 and thus thinning oxygen from the atmosphere drastically. Near the end of the 24th Century mankind has long been totally dominated by a group called Ultimate Control Command (UCC). This organization has forced the reverse evolution of people until they are only tiny in body and without much spirit. They must breathe through tubes attached to backpacks, like ocean divers do today. The virus can't reproduce in ice, so the few humans still alive exist behind a high ice wall they've built across southern Alaska and Canada. A few normal sized workers are kept as slaves to maintain the ice wall, until two escape. This starts a chase involving tiny soldiers and a giant robot with polar bears as its trackers. A big flying saucer Generadmiral Schnicknalgruten Pavlich commands, while bossing and intimidating everyone, is an important feature of the story. His powers are finally challenged by a totally surprising source and the final fight for the world occurs.

The date is June 2022 and the worldwide pandemic and lock-downs have become far worse than anyone could have possibly imagined. Mark and Lamai have been contacted by Uli, a wealthy old friend that is dying of cancer and owns a Tall Sailing Ship in Hamburg, Germany. Uli tells them he has an escape plan and to watch the 2013 Sci Fi movie Elysium, where most of the elites have residences, advanced technology, no sickness or disease and even healing pods like in the movie. Uli believes it is not up in space but most likely a small continent or group of islands in the South Pacific or even be beyond Antarctica. The adventure begins when Mark and Lamai contact a few family and friends and they all escape with Uli on the tall sailing ship and another yacht. But disaster strikes after finding a gap in the Antarctic ice wall and the second yacht is sunk by a military gunboat on the other side. So not having any choice, they navigate back through the ice wall and head up to Bocas del Toro in Panama, where Mark and two friends own some waterfront land, the intention being to set up an off grid community. However, after being shown another old map of the land Admiral Richard Byrd found very close the the Barrington Iron Republic land with many more continents between a second ice ring, Uli tells everyone he is going to make a second attempt at finding another entrance in the ice wall. Everyone was given the choice to stay on Bocas de Toro or re join the ship. On the way, they are stopped by another military ship that demands to know where they are going. They are allowed to continue but a mysterious green fog appears and they are transported to a secret ice covered dome. A high speed under ice shuttle then transports them to Asnana, an archipelago of 52 beautiful islands and another adventure begins.

It is the coldest, windiest, driest place on earth, an icy desert of unearthly beauty and stubborn impenetrability. For centuries, Antarctica has captured the imagination of our greatest scientists and explorers, lingering in the spirit long after their return. Shackleton called it "the last great journey"; for Apsley Cherry-Garrard it was the worst journey in the world. This is a book about the call of the wild and the response of the spirit to a country that exists perhaps most vividly in the mind. Sara Wheeler spent seven months in Antarctica, living with its scientists and dreamers. No book is more true to the spirit of that continent--beguiling, enchanted and vast beyond the furthest reaches of our imagination. Chosen by Beryl Bainbridge and John Major as one of the best books of the year, recommended by the editors of Entertainment Weekly and the Chicago Tribune, one of the Seattle Times's top ten travel books of the year, Terra Incognita is a classic of polar literature.

"Wonderful . . . J. V. Jones is a striking writer." So says Robert Jordan, the author of The Wheel of Time epic fantasy series. And Jones lives up to that praise in the highly charged epic adventure of Ash March and Raif Sevrance, two outcasts whose fate are entwined by ancient prophecies and need, in the cold, dark world that threatens to be torn asunder by a war to end all wars. Isolated by their birthrights, they are but two who fight the dreaded Endlords, and their strength and courage will be needed if the world is to be saved from darkness." Raif, wrongly accused and cut off from his clan by the treachery of their new headsman, has a talent for killing that is part of his curse and his burden. But he bears another burden of greater weight. Ash is a sacred warrior to the Sull, an ancient race whose numbers have declined. Raised as a foundling, never knowing her true history, she must learn to accept the terrible gifts of her heritage. But as Ash learns more of her greater fate, Raif's task looms dark and desperate, for he must journey through the nightmare realm of the Want, a place where even the Sull now fear to tread. For deep within the Want is the Fortress of Grey Ice, and there he must heal the breach in the Blindwall that already threatens the world. Should he fail, not even Ash's powers can save them. . . .
