Not my favorite of L'Engle's, but it wasn't a bad read. Adam Eddington is one of my favorite characters, so I am always glad when he is in one of L'Engle's books.

Vicky Austin and her family have returned home to Thornhill and Vicky is having a hard time fitting back in at school. Adam is off to college but he introduces Vicky to his aunt Serena who lives in town. Adam gets a grant to study in Antarctica and Aunt Serena gives Vicky a trip to Antarctica as a birthday present. Adam sends vague warnings of danger but Vicky still takes the trip. I liked the descriptions of Antarctica and especially the penguins. I didn't like that Adam was barely in the book.
