Joanna Kavenna went north in search of the Atlantis of the Arctic, the mythical land of Thule. Seen once by an Ancient Greek explorer and never found again, mysterious Thule came to represent the vast and empty spaces of the north. Fascinated for many years by Arctic places, Kavenna decided to travel through the lands that have been called Thule, from Shetland to Iceland, Norway, Estonia, and Greenland. On her journey, she found traces of earlier writers and travellers, all compelled by the idea of a land called Thule: Richard Francis Burton, William Morris, Anthony Trollope, as well as the Norwegian Polar explorer Fridtjof Nansen. She met wilderness-lovers; poets writing epics about ice; Inuit musicians and Polar scientists trying to understand the silent snows. But, she came to discover that a darkness also inhabits Thule: the Thule Society, obsessed with the purity of the Nordic peoples; the 'war children' - the surviving progeny of Nazi attempts to foster an Aryan race; as well as ice-bound relics of the Cold War. Finally she arrived in Svalbard, a beautiful Arctic archipelago, at the edge of the frozen ocean. Blending travelogue, reportage, memoir, and literary essay, Joanna Kavenna explores the changing life of the far North in the 20th Century. "The Ice Museum" is a mesmerising story of idealism and ambition, wars and destruction, survival and memories, set against the haunting backdrop of the northern landscape.

A King without his kingdom!   Two worlds...two empires...occupying the same space. The magic that once separated them is fading fast. Now, with the shadow world of Thule threatening to consume Atlantis, Earth and beyond, only Atlantis’ king, the hero known as Aquaman, can stop the invasion.   But Aquaman soon discovers there’s far more to Thule and its inhabitants than meets the eye. When he refuses to carry out his mission and destroy the invading world, he’s branded a traitor by both his kingdom and his Queen, Mera.   Exiled and on the run from his reigning consort and Atlantis’ mightiest hunters, Aquaman—now exhibiting an array of all-new powers—must act alone in trying to stop Thule from obliterating everything he holds dear. But even if he succeeds, how will the exiled king ever be able to reconcile with his city...or a fiercely determined Mera?   It’s a startling new look and direction for Aquaman from writer CULLEN BUNN (SINESTRO, LOBO) and artists including TREVOR McCARTHY (BATWOMAN, KLARION) and VICENTE CIFUENTES (BATGIRL, BIRDS OF PREY). AQUAMAN VOL. 7: EXILED Collects AQUAMAN #41-48 and DC SNEAK PEEK: AQUAMAN #1.
