WHALEBOYS -
DON BURLEY - hero of tomorrow, tall, handsome... and shepherd of the mammoth whale herds which graze the seas, growing fat and healthy and ripe for man's dinner table.

And WALT FRANKLIN - mystery man of The Reefs. What secret from the past waited to plunge him into a life-and-death struggle with the sea? Could he conquer the old terror that kept him apart from his fellows and drove him to search for the treasures of the oceans which could change man's future?

- Galaxy Science Fiction

"It is superior adventure fiction by one of the best performers in his field."

I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
