Description

Polaris Janess, a man raised in the stark Antarctic wilds, sets out from the frozen sea with a single purpose: to deliver his late father’s scientific journals to the National Geographic Society in Washington. Guided by a loyal dog team, he stumbles upon Rose Emer, an American heiress lost from an expedition, and together they are forced to confront the relentless ice. Their journey carries them into a hidden valley warmed by volcanoes, where a remnant of ancient Greece—Sardanes—thrives against all odds.

In Sardanes, Polaris and Rose encounter a civilization that clings to myth and tradition while wrestling with a looming natural threat. A seasoned volcanologist, Zenas Wright, warns that the valley’s life‑giving fires are dying, prompting a daring plan to rescue the isolated people. As the crew of the cruiser Minnetonka joins the quest, the expedition turns into a race against time, camaraderie, and the unforgiving southern seas.
