Thanks for the recommendation. On a related note, I have enjoyed The Terror, inspired by the account of Sir Franklin’s lost expedition. Also the audiobook rendition is amazing.

Did they ever finish the AMC series? I read The Terror when it came out, years ago, and always thought it would be an amazing miniseries / TV show, but nobody I knew had read it. Then I heard rumblings that a show was in the works and I couldn't believe it! But it took years to get to release, and then I never followed up on whether it was successful or not. Great book, though.

I really liked the book and then watched the show years later. The first season of the show covers the book. Overall I liked the show, though not as much as the book. It followed my memory of the book fairly well aside from a few significant changes.

There's a second season of the show about a totally different story that I didn't really care for.
