In The Beast of Cretacea, Todd Strasser reimagines the classic Moby Dick and turns it into an allegory about creeping climate change. Ishmael is a teenage boy who wakes from stasis to discover that he's on a new, clean planet rather than the polluted Earth he left behind. Cretacea isn't all it seems, though, and his task becomes hunting down ocean beasts — including a legendary creature — to send back to an Earth severely depleted of its resources by climate change.
