LEVIATHAN

1976

A compelling novel of adventure and intrigue, Leviathan tells the unadulterated and at times terrible story of whaling, partially from the mind and perspective of a whale. The novel concentrates the senses in terms of willing conservation, whilst entertaining with a varied mixture of characters, some of whom would be classified as eco-terrorists. There are thrills, adventures, battles and heartaches in the story which is taut with human drama, and the author manages to convey the underlying message without preaching, or propaganda.
