This is a review of the unabridged Audible audiobook version. For the most part, I thought this book was well worth the listen. It's fascinating enough as a look into the hardships endured by early British explorers as they sought a Northwest passage through the frigid, icy seas, but author Simmons kicks things up a notch by injecting a supernatural monster into the mix. I agree with other reviewers who say that the last portion of the book should've been left on the editor's desk, since it doesn't quite jibe with everything that came before and ends the book on a note of melodrama that's a bit hard to swallow. Still, worth the read or listen.
