The author of well-known books such as “The Children of Captain Grant” and “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea” created a thrilling adventure with an unexpected turn of events. He wrote a continuation of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket,” calling it “The Ice Sphinx.” In this book, Captain Len Guy gathers a brave crew to set out in search of his brother, Captain of the schooner “Jane,” who disappeared more than eleven years ago off the coast of Antarctica.
