Two years ago I watched most of the ‘Terror’ TV series on a long plane flight back from Sydney to London. I was gripped for many hours, but never got to the last episode as my breakfast arrived. Having spent so much time writing about Sir John Franklin’s disastrous voyage aboard HMS Erebus, I was fascinated to see the story told through the eyes of a novelist, Dan Simmons.
My book, Erebus, attempts to tell as much as is known of what really happened. Either way, it’s a chlling tale. The wreck of Erebus was discovered a few years ago, so there’s more of the story still to come !
And my book’s out there now…https://www.themichaelpalin.com/shop/books/travel-book/erebus-the-story-of-a-ship-paperback/
