The Ocean of the Dead: Ship Kings 4

It is no easy thing, to take leave of the world. At very long last a captain of his own ship, Dow Amber is determined to venture beyond the final frontier - the still, stagnant waters of the Doldrums - in search of a New World. With Nell finally by his side, he is hopeful that they can start again, far from politics, betrayal and war. But none who have sailed the Ocean of the Dead have returned to tell the tale. Before long, an old enemy appears. And with the enemy new dangers. Does the fleet sail to certain death, or to glorious new life beyond the treacherous Doldrums? The Ocean of the Dead is the cataclysmic conclusion to Andrew McGahan's stunning Ship Kings series.
