passage du Nord-Ouest avec, à leur bord, cent trente-trois hommes et suffisamment de provisions pour survivre trois ans aux rigueurs de l'Arctique. L'expédition doit permettre à lAngleterre d'asseoir sa suprématie sur le reste du globe, mais les deux navires se trouvent bientôt prisonniers des glaces dans une immensité sauvage. Commence alors un nouveau voyage, immobile celui-là, au cœur de la nuit polaire et vers les profondeurs de l'être, dont Francis Crozier, commandant du Terror, rend compte dans son journal. Il se languit aussi de la belle Sophia, restée avec sa tante Jane Franklin à Londres, où les thés et les bals se succèdent en un tourbillon de mondanités. Inspiré de la dernière expédition de Franklin, Du bon usage des étoiles brosse un tableau foisonnant des lubies de la société victorienne lesquelles ne sont pas sans rappeler certains des travers de la nôtre dans un patchwork qui mêle avec bonheur le roman au journal, l'histoire, la poésie, le théâtre, le récit d'aventures, le traité scientifique et la recette d'un plum-pudding réussi". -- 4e de couvNo one to trust
