Orca
Condition remarks:
Condition: Fair to Good. Jacket: N/A (mass market paperback, no dust jacket). Page Condition: Yellowed, consistent with age. Markings: No visible markings. Binding: Intact but shows wear consistent with age and use. Stickers/Labels: None visible.
A gripping thriller of man versus nature, Orca pits a relentless killer whale against a fisherman who has wronged it, unleashing a terrifying vendetta on the open seas. Arthur Herzog crafts a taut, suspenseful narrative that chronicles the obsessive pursuit of a great white shark hunter who instead encounters an apex predator far more intelligent and vengeful — a massive orca whale. Herzog argues through visceral storytelling that humanity's arrogance in the face of nature carries devastating consequences, drawing on real orca behaviour to lend the terror an unsettling authenticity. Later adapted into the Dino De Laurentiis blockbuster film of the same name, the novel remains a pulse-pounding page-turner that sits comfortably alongside the era's great creature-feature classics, including Herzog's own The Swarm.
