Le Libellule se faisait attaquer… La dernière chose que Zoya vit fut une tempête de feu orangé. Maintenant, elle se retrouvait couchée sur le sol dur, entourée de débris, le rire glacial et maniaque de Lendon Kane résonnant encore dans ses oreilles. Juste au moment où elle pensait lui avoir échappé, il était de retour pour tous les détruire.

Il « cherche le choc qui lui donnera une seconde envolée ». « Tu es fou », lui dit-on. Mais Leucid veut aller loin, très loin. Il part donc avec un guide et cinq autres voyageurs. Bidonvilles, montagnes majestueuses, jungle incoercible : Leucid n’anticipait pas tant de décadence, la beauté côtoyant les pires laideurs. Et en s’enfonçant dans la jungle, les points de repère tombent, tous se sentent perdus, de plus en plus troublés par les dangers qu’ils affrontent : araignées, serpents, maladies et, bien sûr, angoisse. Confinés dans une hutte, ils dépendent entièrement des Indiens pour survivre. Les sensations s’exacerbent, le temps ralentit ; le quotidien est constamment à réinventer. Tous malades les uns après les autres, ils seront bien vite confrontés à la mort, laquelle dans ce pays n’est que peccadille.

James Rollins presents a collection of twelve stories that dig a little deeper into his creative stomping grounds and open vistas into new landscapes and characters.

Flora Mackie first crossed the Arctic Circle at the age of twelve. In 1889, the whaler's daughter from Dundee - dubbed by the press "The Snow Queen" - sets out to become a scientist and explorer. She struggles to be taken seriously but determination and chance lead her back to northern Greenland at the head of a British expedition, despite the many who believe that a young woman has no place in this harsh world of men. Geologist Jakob de Beyn was raised in Manhattan. Yearning for wider horizons, he joins a rival expedition, led by the furiously driven Lester Armitage. When Jakob and Flora's paths cross, it is a fateful meeting. All three become obsessed with the north, a place where violent extremes exist side by side: perpetual night and endless day; frozen seas and coastal meadows; heroism and lies. Armitage's ruthless desire to be the true leader of polar discovery takes him and his men on a mission whose tragic outcome will reverberate for years to come. Set against the stark, timeless beauty of northern Greenland, and fin-de-siecle New York and London, Under a Pole Star is a compelling look at the dark side of the 'golden age' of exploration, a study of the corrosive power of ambition, and an epic, incendiary love story. It shows that sometimes you have to travel to the furthest edge of the world in order to find your true place in it.
