Just started reading The Terror...
1) doomed adventurers?
2) extreme cold as a horror antagonist? SNOW! ICE! THE FROZEN SEA!!!
3) people being trapped together in a confined space? (Bottle episode anyone?)
4) heroic explorative failures in the name of empire that highlight the faults of imperialism and jingoistic british nationalism?
5) The Thing out there on the ice?
Check, check, check, check, check!
It's official, Dan Simmons wrote this book for ME and ME ALONE
