  • Hardcover

From the #1 "New York Times"-bestselling author of "A Monster Calls" comes a richly illustrated and lyrical tale that turns the familiar novel "Moby Dick" upside down and tells a story all its own with epic triumph and devastating fate.

Description

With harpoons strapped to their backs, the proud whales of Bathsheba's pod live for the hunt, fighting in the ongoing war against the world of men. When they attack a ship bobbing on the surface of the Abyss, they expect to find easy prey. Instead, they find the trail of a myth, a monster, perhaps the devil himself... As their relentless Captain leads the chase, they embark on a final, vengeful hunt, one that will forever change the worlds of both whales and men. With the lush, atmospheric art of Rovina Cai woven in throughout, this remarkable work by Patrick Ness turns the familiar tale of Moby Dickupside down and tells a story all its own with epic triumph and devastating fate.
