Praise the Leviathan of Sea and Sky!Caught in a freakish storm, Brian Hodgson washes ashore on Maccba Island–a backwards isle populated by a friendly, yet bizarre Irish society that worships a legendary ‘leviathan of sea and sky’. Brian is a dogmatic skeptic, and dismisses their pious devotion as nothing more than silly superstition. His persistent nightmares, however, suggest an undercurrent of truth, and he begins to suspect he may be the recipient of a dark prophecy.The islanders act as if they live in the nineteenth century–wearing bonnets, breeches, and frock coats, eschewing all electricity, and sailing on The Gorgon, a mighty galleon ship built for whaling. Brian finds it all strange, yet quaint, and goes so far as to adopt the islander’s antiquated habits.The mysterious fate of Hans Gansevoort (the isle’s lighthouse keeper), a macabre ‘Church of Maccba’, the mysterious appearance of onyx statues, and other nebulous intrigues draw Brian deeper into the legend of Maccba, until, at last, he discovers the horrible truth–the creature exists, and he will have to face it at sea if he is to save himself, the woman he loves, and an infant girl offered up for sacrifice.
