Ice Rift plot themes: Action Adventure Survival Horror Science fiction First Contact Aliens Spacecraft Exploration First feedback: "An exciting adrenaline rush that rarely lets you stop for a breather." "The story quickly draws you in and refuses to let go until the last page. An excellent adventure set in Antarctica. 10/10." "The imaginative mind of the author has produced a thrilling action adventure horror filled with atmosphere and claustrophobic locations. I dreaded each time the characters opened another door. Highly enjoyable read." "Atmospheric locations and a cleverly written plot full of surprises. Richard was my favourite character. It was easy to imagine myself exploring the spacecraft with them. I liked the way the scientists had no weapons to defend themselves with, but had to rely on their wits to survive. It made a change from the usual gung-ho hero machinegun killing scenarios."
