Praise for Buddy Levy:
"Levy writes beautifully about the cold. His Arctic is fearsome and sublime, his ice a living thing. His passion for this alien landscape is infectious―something to appreciate from underneath a pile of blankets while wearing very warm socks." ―New York Times Book Review on Empire of Ice and Stone
“The gripping account of a fatal polar adventure. Hair-raising suffering and heroism in the Arctic.” ―Kirkus Reviews on Empire of Ice and Stone
"Full of evocative descriptions, harrowing action scenes, and incisive character sketches, this is a worthy addition to the literature of Arctic exploration." ―Publishers Weekly on Empire of Ice and Stone
"[Levy] is a master storyteller whose latest thoroughly researched, spellbinding narrative is both profoundly horrifying and heroic...His well-paced, captivating writing is chock-full of vivid imagery and description, making a gripping true tale all the more haunting, powerful, and hard to put down...an intense and riveting read." ―Washington State Magazine on Empire of Ice and Stone
"Levy tells the incredible tale of the genius of Bartlett leading his unseasoned crew over the ice to Wrangel Island in the dead of winter, and then of his own desperate 700-nautical-mile journey over the ice to Siberia to try to find help to rescue the survivors, vividly bringing this harrowing tale to life." ―Explorers Journal on Empire of Ice and Stone
