There is a sequel to 20,000 Leagues under the sea in which a much older Nemo appears. Mysterious Island does have the minor problem of occurring perhaps 20 years prior to the events of 20,000 Leagues. <br /><br />The novel The Brink, by Adm D. V. Gallery also involves the polar ice-cap and possible nuclear war. I think it is much better than Ice-Station Zebra, but I have only seen the movie, not read a novel on which it is based, if it is based on a novel.
