Publisher's Summary

From the number-one New York Times best-selling author of A Monster Calls comes a richly lyrical tale, one that asks harrowing questions about power, loyalty, obsession, and the monsters we make of others.

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.

This remarkable work by Patrick Ness turns the familiar tale of Moby Dick upside down and tells a story all its own with epic triumph and devastating fate.

Interesting story

This was a really diffrent read. As the story is short, it focus on a single thing: the theme of war. Not of how but more about the repercution of war, espacially of a war that has been going for decades. I surprisly love it.
Also Wales wearing armor.
