 Amazon.com: This Thing of Darkness: Books: Harry Thompson   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Yet while Fitz Roy is the hero of this novel, Thompson weaves a double fictional biography--yet one grounded on consummate research--of Fitz Roy and Darwin, counterpoising the characters of the two men skillfully, both during the second voyage of the Beagle from 1831-1836 and in their subsequent careers following the Beagle's return to England.
In Darwin, Thompson portrays the young scientist already given to detailed observation and abstraction of hypotheses as he encountered more adventures in his exploration of South America than the overwhelming majority of men encounter in their lifetimes.
Thompson's work has to rank as a major historical novel, based on the development of its characters, faithful historical representation of the people and cultures of its time, and the clash of ideas as the provocative concept of evolution interacts with religious and traditional models of how the world was established and how it works.

Thompson's almost too neat conceit is that both men start off believing that part of their mission in Tierra del Fuego is to discover scientific confirmation of the Book of Genesis.
Thompson is so intrigued with FitzRoy that he gives us one hair-raising Beagle voyage to Tierra del Fuego to explore his character alone.
