La Compagnie des glaces ("The Ice Company") is a series of 97 post-apocalyptic science fiction novels by the French writer Georges-Jean Arnaud, published between 1980 and 2005.
The La nouvelle Compagnie des Glaces (The New Ice Company) novels began publication in 2001 and continue the original plot fifteen years later.
The setting of La compagnie des glaces also bears close similarity to that of the 1982 French comics series Le Transperceneige, adapted as the film Snowpiercer in 2013.
[1] La Compagnie des glaces was adapted as a youth television series in 2006 in a low-budget French-Canadian co-production, titled Grand Star in English.
La Compagnie des glaces also inspired the 26-episode anime series Overman King Gainer (2002) by Yoshiyuki Tomino, the creator of Gundam.
