Über diesen Titel
Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Terror by Dan Simmons, read by Tom Sellwood.
Stephen King hailed Dan Simmons' bestselling novel as 'a brilliant, massive combination of history and supernatural horror' and it's now a chilling 10-part AMC Original TV series from Ridley Scott.
The most advanced scientific enterprise ever mounted, Sir John Franklin’s 1845 expedition in search of the fabled North-West Passage had every expectation of triumph.
But for almost two years his ships HMS Terror and Erebus have been trapped in the Arctic ice. Supplies of fuel and food are running low. Scurvy, starvation and even madness beging to take their toll. And yet the real threat isn’t from the constantly shifting, alien landscape, the flesh-numbing temperatures or being crushed by the unyielding, frozen ocean. No, the real threat is far more terrifying.
There is something out there in the frigid darkness. It stalks the ships and snatches men. It is a nameless thing. At once nowhere and everywhere, this terror has become the expedition’s nemesis...
Kritikerstimmen
"Simmons has created a chilling supernatural novel...the horrific trials of their impending icy deaths are vividly brought to life." (Daily Express)

Good description of the arctic exploration, bad everything else
I liked the writing style of the book, and when it's read by Tom Sellwood, it becomes 10 times better. Though, the sexualizing of female characters in EACH AND EVERY (rare) scene that they appear makes it 10 times worse. The plot was alright until maybe chapter 20, despite the confusing timejups and POV switches. But it goes downhill from there. The description of the arctic adventure was great, and I would've loved the book if it was just that (and half as long). But the supernatural part of the story was so... out of place. I don't even know how to describe it. And the ending was something else entirely. It was unexpected, confusing and bizarre. I'm just happy to have gotten through it. For the sake of saving time, I wouldn't recommend reading this book, even if it has a few fairly good aspects.
