A gripping and fast-paced Pacific fiction adventure that traverses the ocean and realms of existence, that's hard to put down. Kai bonded with whale Ira, in Marama's womb, but he's also a son of the sea descended from an illustrious line of navigators. When his sea father, Tangaroa, gives Kai and Ira a task, they answer his call to voyage. Our intrepid young hero and his whale sail into danger and adventure. They battle ghouls, search for a missing girl, and are tested mercilessly when they travel to an island occupied by brutal cannibals. Kai must seek out the most feared man in the islands - a feared chief and blood priest. The enemies Kai's family assail him in the physical and spiritual realms, opening his connection to his ancestors. Kai utilises all his cunning and skill, but his quest to fulfil his task eludes him. When success is within his grasp, it slips away, leaving him broken and bitter. The third book in the Spirit Voyager Series from R.de Wolf packs an action punch of its own. It explores the relationship of humans and whales with the ocean and environment while delivering an entertaining story for readers, whether young or adult.

Autorenporträt
R. de Wolf was born on the East Coast of New Zealand and is of Maori descent. After leaving New Zealand to travel the world, she lived overseas for 29 years, returning to New Zealand in 2014. Currently, she resides in Ruatorea. The call to write came home with her. In 2020 R. de Wolf published her debut fiction novel, Guardians of the Ancestors - Book One of the Spirit Voyager Series, and short story Crushed Violet, in Kaituhi Rawhiti - A Celebration of East Coast Writers. In 2021 The Future Weavers - Book Two launched in November, and Poetry in a Pear Tree, was published in December. A self-confessed nerd and Sci-Fi fan, The Goodness Algorithm was R. de Wolf's first dystopian novel in 2022 and Poetry In a Pohutukawa followed in December, along with the launch of Kaituhi R¿whiti Two - Weaving of Words which she co-edited and features two of her stories - Whale Brothers (a teaser for the upcoming novel) and The Hollow Mother. Brothers in Whalesong Book Three of the Spirit Voyager Series launched in February 2023. De Wolf writes about the issues she is passionate about - equality, women's rights, the balance of nature, and the spiritual connection to our ancestors and place, with all of her books set in Oceania. She is a member of the NZSA and a Committee member for the Central District Branch, the Tairawhiti Writer's Hub, and the Tai Tech Writers Group. One of her greatest achievements for 2022 was encouraging writers from Tairawhiti to share their work, learn, and be confident in developing their own voice. De Wolf assisted with the launch of Te Kaituhi M¿ori, an organisation supporting M¿ori writers in May 2023. Book four is in progress and the third Poetry Book.
