Gabriel Hunt is independently wealthy and runs around the world saving artifacts, people, etc... Think Indiana Jones in book form. In this entry, a hot lady named Velda shows up at his office asking him to help look for her father who's gone missing in Antarctica. His last transmission mentions trees, and his colleagues believe he was hallucinating, but Velda wants to save what could be her father's greatest discovery. Hunt decides to take the case and assembles a team including his best friend, southern charmer Maximilian, and his ex-girlfriend, a mechanic, which is a bit awkward since he's now banging Velda. When the team gets out to the portion of ice Velda's father was lost around, they fall into a fission in the ice and discover red ice and a tunnel that just may prove Velda's father wasn't hallucinating after all.
This is what pulp fiction should be all about. This is the kind of book that I finished and immediately contacted multiple friends to tell them the full plot, and then they all wanted to read it for themselves in spite of knowing how it ends. In fact, knowing the ending made them want to read it more. This is the kind of book where I hit one particular scene, and my jaw dropped open and I started laughing hysterically and everyone in my work cafeteria turned to look at me. Basically: this kind of book is why I love pulp fiction and thumb my nose at literary fiction snobs.
Essentially if you think that a book version of 007 complete with a village of Amazon Nazis under the ice sounds like one of the best things ever, you're going to love this book. If you read that sentence and rolled your eyes or cringed, then yeah, avoid it. It's not meant for you.
