From the multi-award-winning author of A Monster Calls comes a haunting tale of power and obsession that turns the story of Moby Dick upside down. "Call me Bathsheba." The whales of Bathsheba's pod live for the hunt. Led by the formidable Captain Alexandra, they fight a never-ending war against men. Then the whales attack a man ship, and instead of easy prey they find the trail of a myth, a monster, perhaps the devil himself... With their relentless Captain leading the chase, they embark on the final hunt, one that will forever change the worlds of whales and men.
小白鲸 Bathsheba 从小被预言,生为猎杀而活。亲眼目睹母亲被人类无情虐杀後,命运齿轮彷佛开始运转。在白鲸船长引领下,牠们对人类发起「最後」战役,这将永远改变白鲸和人类的世界。故事情节流转,配搭冲击视觉的插图,形塑出充满海水和血腥味的魔幻寓言,乘载着灵魂、命定和炼狱的重量。
