It is February 2033 and Earth forces have their full attention on the Bering Strait. If Bzadian forces mange to cross the icy wastelands and enter the Americas, then the planet will be lost. On Little Diomede Island, the control centre for the Bering Strait, something is not right. An agent and two Seal teams have vanished. Recon Team Angel, although officially shut down, is secreted into the frozen landscape to investigate. What they find is more than chilling and has catastrophic implications for the survival of the human race. Who will win the Ice War?

Brian Falkner is the award-winning, bestselling author of several novels for children and young adults, including The Flea Thing, The Real Thing, The Super Freak, action adventure sci-fi novels The Tomorrow Code and Brainjack.

Brian Falkner handles the fast action and the wise-cracking banter of the young teenage warriors credibly and well, and hauls the reader along at breakneck speed. His heroes suffer dreadfully in the Arctic conditions, as trust, betrayal, love, loyalty, honour and sacrifice drive this intricate plot and the complex interplay between the main characters. The action flows thick and fast throughout this taut thriller, with danger, death and betrayal never more than a page or two away. * Magpies *
