The Thaw

Arctic winter, perpetual dark. A rusted ice auger lies half-buried. Four students bore into permafrost; a mammoth corpse, intact, stares back. The thaw releases something older than thaw itself, hungrier than hunger. Mark A. Lewis’s eco-horror creaks with practical effects and cold sweat.
