As Ice and his friend approach their secret lodge in the Canadian wilds, their plane is shot down by the fanatic army of the Next Dimension of Man—a new order for “peace and the salvation of man,” but in fact, nothing more than a smoldering explosive ready to burst and consume the world! Inside The Oasis, the largest adult pleasure palace on the globe, Iceman was safe. Iceman, born Henry Highland West, knew what was happening in the world at all times. But in the midst of his luxury accommodations, the domestic and international crises were nothing more than distant rumblings. Now, from the roar of vicious snowmobiles to the thunder of a deadly avalanche, Iceman’s “Canadian Kill” is high-stakes adventure! Cultural context: The “Iceman” series by Joseph Nazel, including “Canadian Kill,” is part of a notable black adventure series published by Holloway House during the 1970s and 1980s. These books are significant as they were part of a broader cultural movement that saw increased representation of black characters and themes in popular culture, particularly in the genres of adventure, action, and pulp fiction. Joseph Nazel, a prolific African-American author, crafted the Iceman series featuring Henry Highland West, a dynamic and resourceful protagonist who often finds himself in high-stakes situations. “Canadian Kill,” the sixth book in the series, exemplifies the exciting and action-packed narratives typical of the series, blending elements of espionage, action, and social commentary. Holloway House Publishing Company was instrumental in providing a platform for black writers during this era, contributing to the rise of black cultural expression through literature. Their publications, including works by Nazel, helped to highlight and celebrate black heroism and adventure at a time when mainstream media offered limited representation of black protagonists in such roles. The Iceman series is appreciated not only for its thrilling plots but also for its cultural significance, reflecting the struggles and triumphs of black characters in a manner that resonated with many readers during the period.
