Publisher Description
CLASSIC SF—NOW AVAILABLE AS AN EBOOK FOR THE FIRST TIME!
The Hope is a vast ocean liner, five miles long and two miles wide and one mile high, which lurches through the waves on a voyage to nowhere, carrying a million passengers in her rusting belly. After some thirty years at sea, everyone aboard her has gone just a little bit loopy, and violent death has become a way of life. All sorts of horrors lurk in the ship’s darkest corners—rumours made flesh, unspeakable creatures, peripheral-vision insanities. The only certainty is this: the Hope, which was once a multimillionaire philanthropist’s dream, has become a floating nightmare.

Great reading!
I have now read The Hope twice. It's really a book of short stories about the lives of the people aboard a huge ship that has been at sea for a very, very long time. Some of the stories intertwine, some stand alone, ALL of them make you think about society and how we treat one another. I have to read another of this authors books! Try this one. It's a light sci fi with lots of horror and blood so be prepared!
