In the Orion Nebula, death is written in the stars.

Jóre, an alien outcast, joins the nebula whaling ship Jupiter's Ghost—a vessel haunted by loss and hunted by something far worse. Whispers speak of the Great Blue, a monstrous whale that shatters steel and devours entire ships. In a crew bound by desperation and old grudges, trust is scarce and survival is a thin hope.

As Jupiter's Ghost sails deeper into Orion Nebula, the line between hunter and hunted fades, and Jóre must decide how much of himself he's willing to sacrifice for glory—and for revenge.

Not all who sail into the nebula will return. Some dreams are meant to be swallowed whole.
