Ros and Simon Rodriquez, the twin brothers and Spanish research students, are the first ones to spot the initial signs of volcanic activity in an area hitherto dormant in La Palma. In the Summit Station in Greenland, Lars Brun has just started using an innovative tracking device to determine the flow of surface meltwater as it cascades through the glacier\u2019s crevasses to sea level. When Professor Gerard Gilmore, Ireland\u2019s Chief Scientist, takes charge of the Project Eriador to investigate the recent sea floor seismic readings along the Irish continental Shelf, he has no clue the fast-approaching environmental catastrophe when combined with the rapid melting of ice sheet and the disruption of the Gulf Stream has the power to shift the vast terrain of Earth into an icy tundra. The story at times is overwhelmed by nitty gritty of environmental jargon and technical terms, but Brennan\u2019s accessible prose will hold readers\u2019 attention firmly throughout. He paints a gloomy portrait of the modern doomsday scenario, and the global ramifications of the climate catastrophe seem too real for comfort. The denouement is eerie and foreboding, making the book unsuitable for the faint of heart. Meticulous research, a stunning worldbuilding, and high tension make this a must-read thriller.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Iceapelago<\/h2>\n<h2>A Climate Change Thriller<\/h2>\n<h3>By Peter Brennan<\/h3>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/ICEAPELAGO-Peter-Brennan-ebook\/dp\/B088WCN6RC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4>Pub date<\/h4>\n<h4>ISBN B088WCN6RC<\/h4>\n<h4>Price $14.99 (USD) Paperback, $5.22 Kindle edition<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A superb environmental thriller\u2026 A terrifying global apocalyptic phenomenon drives Brennan\u2019s chilling first installment in Iceapelago series.
