The Final Voyage of the Venerable Saucy Nancy by Glynn Owen Barrass
Digital & print editions available - link in comments.
When the mist never lifts and the nightmares become real, only one thing is certain—no one escapes the sea’s ancient hunger.
Captain Thomasina Collins leads her motley crew aboard The Saucy Nancy through a sea blanketed in unnatural fog, where the horizon is lost and compasses spin uselessly. With supplies dwindling and unease spreading through the ship, a routine act of piracy brings aboard more than just gold and prisoners—it awakens a curse rooted in the depths of Innsmouth lore. As paranoia grows and loyalties fracture, Thomasina finds herself facing mutiny, secrets, and horrors that slither just beyond the edge of reason.
But the greatest threat comes not from her crew, or even from the enigmatic prisoners tied to the notorious Esoteric Order of Dagon—it rises from beneath the waves. Gargantuan, abominable shapes prowl the water, watching, waiting, as reality frays at the seams.
In this cosmic horror adventure, survival depends on wit, courage, and the willingness to face the impossible. Glynn Owen Barrass delivers a voyage through madness, sea monsters, and dark myth, perfect for fans of Lovecraftian fiction and maritime horror. What price will Thomasina and her crew pay to see land again—and what will they bring back with them from the black abyss?
