Antarctica. It is a place of frozen wastes, desolation and things best left forgotten. Presented here is the tale of William Dyer, a professor from Miskatonic University and the leader of an ill-fated expedition to that remove and forlorn continent. Recorded in a series of letters, Dyers tells a scarely believable tale full of anomalous and often horrific events. Dreadful secrets lie beneath the ice, waiting to be discovered. Strange, cyclopean structures squat amidst the mountains towering in the distance, promising only madness to those who dare explore their alien architecture. The Dyer Expedition ventures further than any other before them, and ultimately pays the price for it. --Back cover.
