AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The Last Voyage of Aratus delves into the motivation of a man whose thirst for revenge sees him embark on a journey to a distant locale beyond morality and compassion, to atone for his Great Sin. His companions on this enigmatic voyage across the seas encircling Australia soon learn his attitudes to a vanquished foe are informed by ignorance and hubris; a terrifying combination with deadly consequences.

'The Last Voyage of Aratus is accompanied by several short, and not-so-short stories, ranging from the whimsical to the poetic and the speculative, stories that transport the reader to Jamaica, Ireland and the deserts of North Africa for a crazed expedition to retrieve stolen gold.'
