Where Eagles Dare. Preposterous (but excellent) WW2 thriller set in the Bavarian Alps. Richard Burton, Clint Eastwood, Mary Ure.

Alistair MacLean (who also wrote the novel and screenplay for the above) Ice Station Zebra. Cold War thriller set in the high Arctic.

Ursula LeGuin, The Left Hand of Darkness. Science fiction, set on the planet Gethen where it's always winter, and where the inhabitants are ambisexual for 90% of the time. There's a long sequence in which the Earth envoy and the former Prime Minister of one of Gethen's nations cross an ice cap together, and it's wonderful.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

Michael Scott Rohan, The Winter of the World trilogy. Set in an interglacial of this world. Four friends use the power of magesmithery to go up against the powers of the Ice. I rate this trilogy one level below Tolkien.


SPOILER



sad but hopeful ending

SA The sad ending warned for above is for "Left Hand of Darkness". Sorry.
