When the young Ishmael gets on board Captain Ahab's whaling ship, little does he suspect that the mission on which he is about to embark is the fulfilment of his master's obsessive desire for revenge on Moby Dick, a white whale who has already claimed countless human victims and destroyed many fleets. With some sinister crew members in their midst and the hazardous conditions of the sea to contend with, the expedition becomes increasingly dangerous the closer it gets to its quarry.

“Moby Dick”

This is possibly one of the wordiest and most detailed books I have ever read, it is taxing and slightly exhausting to read and not one that you can skim read while the ads are on during your favourite programme.... More
