Against the Sea: Tales On and Under the Sea

Stories about the sea are always intriguing. Two thirds of our planet is covered with water which makes for an exciting venue for stories. This collection is a mix of true, nearly true, and possible tales above and below the water. In The Long Arm of the Sea, a father and son go through a rite of passage in fighting an unexpected sea monster; in The Storm, inclement weather takes an unexpected different form; in Atum Bom, an advanced type of submarine encounters the unexpected on a test voyage; in The Eye Exam, passing a licensing exam to become a captain is not as easy as it looks; in Wipe Out, the sea is an unpredictable and unforgiving force; in Pirates for a Night, there is more to consider when getting a captain’s license; in Too Easy what seems easy may not be so; and in Upon This Rock, men at sea will always get their just rewards. Let us lift anchor, throw off our lines, and head out to sea; adventure awaits us!
