Extreme Adventures titles have a strong environmental dimension, and this is showcased in Killer Whale, as Sam, aged 14, and his 5-year-old brother Harry, find themselves stranded on an ice floe after the airplane taking them and their father on a whale-watching tour in Antarctic crash-lands.
Separated from the rest of the group, and floating out to sea, Sam and Harry soon realize that, in addition to the danger posed by the extreme cold, there are sea leopards and killer whales in the icy waters…
But there’s also the kindhearted but determined and committed crew of an environmentalist ship, who are locked in battle with Japanese whalers. It’s extreme adventure at its finest.
