Review: Dry Ice
Dry Ice by Bill Evans
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
(I read an ARC given to me through a Goodreads giveaway. Thanks Goodreads!)
When I read the description on the giveaway, I signed up because it sounded interesting. Early reviews had me concerned because I was expecting a technically confusing story - but it wasn't. I'm one of those people that love to learn new things and the explanation of the division of Antarctica and the lifestyle of those living on the ice was fascinating.
As I read the book, I wondered how they would be able to pull it together into a plausible end. With 30 pages left, I still didn't think it would happen. And in the end, it worked...and it kept the action going until the last chapter.
I could see this becoming a SyFy disaster movie. The cinematography could be amazing and the devastation makes it fit into their niche easily. I don't know that I've ever read a disaster book and it's a nice change from the disaster movies! I will definitely look for something more from Bill Evans!
