Han Roland had been a ferryman for almost two decades. He had been ferrying ships between galaxies for so long that he'd long lost any appreciation for the magic of the stars that danced around him everyday. His life was nothing but bitter, tedious reality that he'd grown awfully weary of.
But then, one day, his ship ran aground, and on the icy rock of the forgotten planet he ended up stranded on, he found someone. Or perhaps he was something. The strange, white-haired foundling wasn't like any other person he'd ever known existed. For one, when he looked into his eyes, he could see actual constellations spinning around.
In a world of harsh realities, the strange boy he'd discovered that day becomes a delirious fantasy that pushes the boundaries of his world, his beliefs, and his heart.

Henry Starbuck is the first mate onboard such a vessel, the Pequod. He only wants to finish the season and return home to his husband and son. But the captain of the Pequod, Ahab, is a man obsessed with hunting down the vessel which took so much from him. There are legends of his quarry, Moby-Dick: talk from spacefaring astronauts that the ship, shaped like the extinct whales of old, is no longer crewed and is run entirely off a rogue AI programme. Many lives have been lost to it. Starbuck has to confront the terror of space and the awful mania of his captain, all the while dealing with a past which will never leave him alone. He wishes desperately to do what is right. The farthest galaxies are heartless, but no more cruel than the horror that exists inside man. [a sci fi adaptation novella of Herman Melville's Moby-Dick - but no previous knowledge of the book is required] [Updates every Friday from 20/09]
