The Ship of Ishtar

by Abraham Merritt

In this, readers are transported to a world of forgotten legends and hidden treasures. John Kenton, an American adventurer, finds himself drawn into a mysterious quest when he stumbles upon an ancient artifact—a silver bracelet with an inscription that holds the key to unlocking a gateway to another realm. Driven by curiosity and a thirst for discovery, Kenton boards the fabled ship, Ishtar, which sails the mythical Sea of Dreams. As the ship sets sail, Kenton is thrust into a dangerous web of political intrigue, divine machinations, and supernatural forces. He encounters gods, sorcerers, and mythical creatures, each with their own agendas and desires. As Kenton delves deeper into the mysteries of the ship and its divine inhabitants, he must navigate treacherous waters and face unimaginable challenges. Along the way, he grapples with questions of faith, destiny, and the nature of power.
