AMEDEO OF SAVOY, Luigi, Duke of the Abruzzi. On the "Polar Star" in the Arctic Sea. London: Hutchinson & Co. 1903.

Two volumes, 4to. Original green cloth, image of Polar Star blocked in gilt to upper cover, gilt lettering to spine; pp. xvi, 346, [xvii]-xxii; viii, [347]-702 [ix]-xii, 212 photographic illustrations in the text, 16 full-page photogravures, 2 panoramas, 5 maps including 2 folding maps at rear of volume I; very light marking to cloth, minimal offsetting from endpapers, otherwise a very good set with mid-20th century bookplates.

First edition. The Polar Star expedition, comprising a crew from Italy and Norway, aimed to reach the North Polar by sailing as far north as possible and then continuing by sledge. The Pole was not actually attained but the sledge expedition pushed on to a new highest latitude, and indeed the Polar Star reached the highest latitude ever achieved by a ship following the coast-line. Three of the crew perished during the sledge journey.

Prince Luigi Amedeo, Duke of the Abruzzi, (1873-1933) was an Italian mountaineer and explorer. A member of the royal House of Savoy, he was briefly an Infante of Spain as the son of Amadeo I of Spain, and a cousin to King Victor Emmanuel III of Italy.

Ends in a cliffhanger
Format: Kindle
Thankfully, the next book is already available. Roxy Collins is the queen of omegaverse slow burn. This particular series is omegaverse with wolf shifters. Thoroughly enjoyed this book! Lots of suspense and trying to figure out what is true and what's really going on. I loved it! Pretty spicy once the action starts. Heats are pretty much always spicy. There is a little bit of male interaction, but not full-on shmex. Definitely recommend.

Epic!!!!
Format: Kindle
Absolutely addicted from the first page. The twists and turns, world building and character development all come together for the perfect Omegaverse. And let's not forget that spice because knots are life and these are spectacular. Running for book #2 because that cliffhanger was torturous.

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot. Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable. The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold. The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.
