New YA Adventure Novel Brings Real Antarctic Science—and Survival—to Young Readers

Published

on

Century House Publications launches Adventure: Antarctica!, a grounded coming-of-age story that blends real research with high-stakes survival on the Ice.

Seattle, Washington, United States, 9th Feb 2026 – Educator and author Jeff Hendricks is pleased to announce the release of Adventure: Antarctica!, a gripping new Young Adult Adventure novel now available on Amazon. Blending real-world Antarctic science with an emotionally driven survival story, the novel places readers in one of the most extreme environments on Earth and asks what it truly takes to grow up when everything goes wrong.

The story follows Danny Gage, a hesitant but determined high school senior who never planned on traveling to Antarctica. When he joins a science research team as an intern, what begins as an unexpected opportunity quickly becomes a life-changing test. Working alongside fellow intern Yura Tanaka and biochemistry graduate student Tatyana Tarasova, Danny embarks on a field expedition that turns dangerous when a routine research trip escalates into a fight for survival.

Set against the harsh and unforgiving Antarctic landscape, Adventure: Antarctica! explores themes of teamwork, responsibility, and courage. As Danny faces physical danger and personal doubt, the frozen continent becomes more than a backdrop—it shapes every decision the characters must make.

Real Science, Real Challenges

A defining feature of Adventure: Antarctica! is its commitment to scientific accuracy. The novel portrays authentic field research, showing how teams collect data, protect fragile environments, and confront real-world issues such as climate change. Rather than relying on fantasy elements, the story highlights the true challenges faced by researchers working at the bottom of the world.

This grounded approach invites readers to appreciate both the excitement of exploration and the importance of scientific work. The result is a fast-paced adventure that also offers meaningful insight into how science is practiced in extreme conditions.

Themes of Growth and Discovery

Beyond the action, Adventure: Antarctica! delivers emotional depth through Danny’s personal journey. His uncertainty, fear, and determination reflect the real struggles many teens face as they search for direction and confidence. Moments of reflection balance the novel’s tension, showing how growth often happens far from comfort and familiarity.

The story also captures the wonder of scientific discovery. Each stage of the expedition introduces readers to the tools, questions, and problem-solving skills used by real research teams. This makes the novel a strong example of STEM-focused fiction, appealing to general readers as well as educators, librarians, and parents seeking stories that inspire curiosity.

About the Author

Jeff Hendricks is an educator, instructional designer, and author with degrees in Geological Sciences and Science Education. He has spent years creating learning experiences that connect science with storytelling, helping students understand how scientific research works in real life.

His background brings authenticity and clarity to Adventure: Antarctica!, ensuring the science is accurate while the narrative remains accessible and engaging. His passion for the Young Adult Adventure genre is evident in the novel’s pacing, character development, and attention to detail.

Hendricks describes his inspiration for the book:

“I wrote Adventure: Antarctica! to show that science isn’t just about facts—it’s about courage, curiosity, and discovery. Antarctica felt like the perfect place to explore that truth.”

High-Stakes Survival and Environmental Awareness

As the expedition unfolds, Danny and his team must rely on their training, equipment, and growing trust in one another to survive a powerful storm far from help. These moments of danger sharpen the novel’s pace while reinforcing themes of environmental responsibility and resilience.

Through survival and sacrifice, Danny begins to understand who he is becoming. This balance of action and meaning makes Adventure: Antarctica! a compelling addition to the Young Adult Adventure genre.

Adventure: Antarctica! is available now on Amazon in the following formats:
 • eBook
 • Paperback
 • Hardcover
