Book Description:
Anarctica is the last unconquered continent, a murderous expanse of howling winds, blinding whiteouts and deadly crevasses. On one edge of Antarctica is Wilkes Station. Beneath Wilkes Station is the gate to hell itself...

A team of U.S. divers, exploring three thousand feet beneath the ice shelf has vanished. Sending out an SOS, Wilkes draws a rapid deployment team of Marines-and someone else...

First comes a horrific firefight. Then comes a plunge into a drowning pool filled with killer whales. Next comes the hard part, as a handful of survivors begin an electrifying, red-hot, non-stop battle of survival across the continent and against wave after wave of elite military assassins-who've all come for one thing: a secret buried deep beneath the ice...

If you are looking for some great fast paced action this is a great book. You know you are in for action when the book is divided into sections called confrontations.

"Grabs you like seeing a glock pointed at your head. If you want action--and I mean serious action--then pick up Matthew Reilly's ICE STATION." says Richard Marcinko. I couldn't agree more. The crew of Americans must protect themselves in Antartica and save the Wilkes station. Good luck!

This book took a while to get into for me, but quickly became a page-turner with a quick thinking hero, humor, military stuff and a doomsday plot.

This is a very exciting book--the action never stops! The only part I found kind of boring is there are a LOT of descriptions of military stuff--ranks and weapons. I kind of skipped over those parts, but I enjoyed the story a lot.

Intense action. Slightly futuristic take on a secret battle between the elite forces of three nations over what may be a discovery of alien technology in the Antarctic. A fun read.
