'Those eyes. They were the faded blue of a clear winter sky, a luminous, translucent, glacier blue. They had invited me into a strange new world of isolation and loneliness, treacherous weather, icebergs and danger. And I had accepted. What had I done? I'd only met him in the pub an hour ago and I'd just agreed to go with him on his scientific expedition to a deserted island 600 miles from the North Pole. Just the two of us.' When Marie met a German professor in an arctic bar in Norway, her life took a turn for the extraordinary. She agreed to accompany him on a year long expedition to a remote, glaciated island with just two dogs for company. It would be like landing on the moon and living in a rabbit hutch. "Champagne and Polar Bears" is the true story of day-to-day survival in severe weather, adventures with inquisitive polar bears, and four months of total darkness. It also tells a story of one brave woman's personal development and a romance that developed in a small, frozen hut in the Arctic. It is a love story with a happy ending, to warm even the coldest heart.

Marie Tieche published her book first in Germany, where she has done several TV interviews and been the subject of many articles. She won the Sailing Today writing competition for an article about sailing around Iceland.
