On Fenris, where a single day lasts about two thousand hours, the colonists of Port Sandor live by hunting sea monsters for their valuable tallow-wax. Seventeen-year-old Walt Boyd, reporting for his father’s newspaper, meets a ship from Terra and stumbles into a scheme of murder and fraud that leaves him and the hunters fighting for survival at sea.

A fast, clever adventure for young readers and adults, with Piper’s trademark love of frontier politics. Download the free EPUB.
