About this audiobook

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Basil Elton keeps the lighthouse at North Point, as his father and grandfather did before him — a lonely sentinel between the grey world of men and the endless mystery of the sea. But when the moon is full, a White Ship glides silently out of the south, and one night Elton walks across the moonbeams to board her. Guided by a bearded man in ancient robes, he sails beyond the horizon to lands unknown to any map: Zar, where dwell forgotten dreams; the ominous shores of Thalarion, City of a Thousand Wonders; and blissful Sona-Nyl, the Land of Fancy, where suffering and death hold no dominion. Yet paradise breeds restlessness, and Elton yearns for fabled Cathuria, the Land of Hope beyond the basalt pillars of the West — against every warning of his guide. A luminous early gem of Lovecraft's Dream Cycle, "The White Ship" trades cosmic terror for aching, dreamlike beauty — and a lesson about the price of abandoning contentment in pursuit of the unattainable.
