FIRST EDITION, SIGNED BY AUTHOR!

A FIRE ON THE SEA is a vivid adventure story set a hundred years in the future on the north Pacific coast. It weaves realistic settings and believable characters into a story with fantastic elements that include renewal of native traditions, travel by sailing ship and communication with whales.

The main characters are three young people who must work together to overcome the power of the Priests who are rapidly taking over their coastal village of Ucluth.
​
Miria, the Whale King’s daughter, Robin, raised in the house of the Whale King, and Jomie, an orphan from the House of the Fishermen, decide they will make a journey to the ruins of the City to return with new knowledge. To do this, they will travel with the Sea People, the ocean-going matriarchal culture that has re-established trade on the coast.

But after Jomie is stabbed by a henchman of the Priests, Robin and Miria must flee. Robin is thrown overboard from the ship on which he is travelling and must use all his wits and knowledge to survive as he makes his way south to the Bay of Oaks to warn Miria. Together he and Miria will continue their quest and find others who will help them.
