Night Sea Journey is unlike any book I have read before. I have read many books to do with the supernatural and the challenge it presents, but this book is far from straightforward.The story opens with one of the main characters, a young artist called Kip, asleep in her home Abasteron House, where her dream appears to become a reality.The story then introduces the other main character, Father Raymond Kera who is confiding in his friend Garcia (the prophet), also a priest, that he is doubting his faith. The two men talk in depth and Garcia tells Raymond about an experience he had concerning a person called Yeshua. His experience bears similarities to Kips dream in that it involved the sea and appeared to be a reality when he woke as he was covered in sand and seawater.Raymond is sent by Rome to work on Horn Island where he encounters Kip who lives nearby and he becomes involved in her life. Kip is tormented by demons, especially the firehawk, a massive faceless birdlike creature with twelve wings.Although this book is not exactly scary, it is full of suspense and you have to keep reading to discover the outcome. The author is very descriptive with wonderfully written illustrations of the scenery, the sea, and of course the demons .This is a must read for any fans of the supernatural.
