I loved it. I like historical fiction and Stephen King and you get both with the Terror.

I was worried how he’d wrap the story up, knowing that nobody came back from the expedition yet having a clear protagonist to root for, and I thought he did a great job with the ending.

If you can’t get it done today there’s always tomorrow. If tomorrow doesn’t come then it wasn’t really important anyway.

Back when Apple was using their original plug for the iPhone I really wanted something better. Then when I had an Android with micro USB I really wanted something better. I’m fine with Lightning and USB-C now, and maybe USB-C will get us through the next however many years before the EU updates their requirements, but history has shown that the simple little plugs can indeed be improved upon.
