The Wind Whales of Ishmael by Philip Jose Farmer
Ishmael, lone survivor of the doomed whaling ship Pequod, falls through a rift in time and space to a future Earth - an Earth of blood-sucking vegetation and a blood-red sun, of barren canyons where once the Pacific Ocean roared. Here too there are whales to hunt - but whales that soar through a dark blue sky.... Hugo Award-winner Philip Jose Farmer spins a fascinating tale of whaling ships and sailors of the sky in a bizarre future world where there are no seas to sail and no safe harbor to call home....
"[A] jolting conception, brought off with tremendous skill" (The Times)"
