And the Ocean Was Our Sky by Patrick Ness

And the Ocean Was Our Sky by Patrick Ness

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Monster Calls comes a richly illustrated and 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.



With the lush, atmospheric art of Rovina Cai woven in throughout, 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.

Patrick Ness is the author of seven novels and a collection of short stories. He was born in Virginia and raised in Hawaii and Washington. He has twice been awarded the Carnegie Medal, as well as the Guardian Children's Literature Prize and the Costa Children's Book Award.

He is based in London.
