Description

Early in March, 1971, the Western Block exploded their newest Cold War weapon in the atmosphere-a deadly contraterrene bomb capable of destroying a continent. Two weeks later, the Eastern Bloc realized the news that they had duplicated the explosion-on the same day, at the same time. By July, the black ash from the two explosions filled the sky, blotting out the sun. The darkness grew and the temperature fell. Suddenly mankind was facing a new and terrible Ice Age.
Every resource of science was put to work to halt the deadly process. But as experiment after experiment failed, cries of terror rose into the frigid air. As panic seized the minds of the world's population, the dense, snowy night closed in, entombing the Earth beneath a blanket of incredible and suffocating cold-threatening extinction for the whole human race.
