An intrepid professor and his adventurous baronet companion are drawn together by a bold scheme to breach the impenetrable Arctic ice. Armed with a massive, experimental submarine built by a brilliant engineer and powered by a daring liquid‑air engine, they hope to slip beneath the frozen barrier and discover the hidden sea beyond. Their preparations are meticulous, but the very notion of such a voyage has earned them ridicule from the scientific establishment.
Once beneath the ice, the crew finds themselves in a realm far stranger than any polar desert—a cavernous under‑world populated by towering, half‑beast creatures known as the Wolf‑Men. The darkness is broken only by flickering bioluminescence and the occasional roar of unseen beasts, turning every moment into a test of courage and ingenuity. As alliances shift and survival becomes a race against the unknown, the explorers must rely on wit, daring, and the fragile trust among their small band.

1847–1906
Best known as "White Beaver," this restless 19th-century adventurer moved through the worlds of medicine, show business, politics, and popular fiction. His life was colorful enough to feel like a dime novel even before he started writing them.
