Xombies: Apocalypse Blues
“We passed latitude seventy-five, only fifteen degrees short of the North Pole, yet continued up toward the encroaching glaciers of Greenland and Ellesmere Island. It looked to me like a dead end, at least on the map. There was only one narrow cut threading those landmasses, a permanently frozen-over passage called the Kennedy Channel, and I dearly hoped we were not going to attempt that. The frustrated atmosphere in the sub told me I was not alone—everyone was confused. But our fears turned out... to groundless: on February 25, Commander Coombs ordered a course correction that put us on a direct heading for the Greenland ice cap.
“Thule!” Cowper announced triumphantly to me through the door when I was next able to sneak to the goat locker. He seemed to be feeling better. “Thule Air Base!”
“Where’s that?”
“Just where we’re heading, on the west coast of Greenland. It’s a dead giveaway.”
“I didn’t see any air base on my atlas.”
“They don’t advertise it. Look again—it’s probably just listed as Thule, or maybe even Qaanaaq.”MoreLess
