Juvenile Fiction. Juvenile Literature. HTML: THERE IS A THIN LINE BETWEEN GENIUS AND MADNESS. When young Nathan sails with his older brothers in search of a lost treasure ship, he is expected to do exactly as they tell him. But when one of his brothers mysteriously dies and the other declares he is Captain Ahab straight out of Moby Dick, Nathan worries about what orders he might have to carry out. Then a mysterious object appears in the bay that seems to have floated out of the very pages of Moby Dick. Something very strange is happening at sea, but how...and why? "Figures and events from Moby Dick are given eerie, shadowy counterparts...So quietly, so persuasively is this accomplished that when Ishmael's ocean-going coffin drifts out of Melville's seas in O'Dell's, it carries no shock for either Nathan or the reader." �??Washington Post Book World… (mehr)

Told from the point of view of a young cabin boy, this is the story of a salvage ship searching for a fortune in whale oil and ambergris, sunken beneath the waves in a storm years before. However, it is also a story of delusion, as one man risks the safety of the crew and voyage based upon parallels he sees between their situation and the book Moby Dick.

This was an extremely interesting read, and recommended. (
