Query: Arctic arrogance and melodrama

After reading other customer and critical reviews I think we need some balance here. I was looking forward to this book and then terribly disappointed when I got into it. What a great idea for a plot! What great research on the setting! What an unbelievable man is Zeke: a devil with a fox on his shoulder. The women tend to be simpletons, so we are left with Erasmus and Ned as the only real people in the book. The plot bogged down in unbelievable detail, and the ending was pure romance novel. Not for me. I am fascinated by writing about the Arctic, but I'll stick with "Arctic Dreams."
