Peter is a young man who would rather be surfing but he has a job at his Tribe’s casino – that he hates, but it’s a job. He is late – again – and his behaviour causes him to lose his job. He’s not exactly sad at this outcome and he takes the opportunity to head to his college and hopefully work on finishing his thesis. There he finds out he will work on a cultural study in an area where an energy company wants to put in a large plant for oil/gas processing. It’s one of Peter’s favorite surf spots and he is devastated at the possibility that the area will be destroyed.
While on the study Peter has an accident – or is it? – and he travels back in time to the era of his Ancestors where he interacts with them including showing them how to build surfboards and how to surf.
If you can’t already tell, surfing plays a big role in this novel. If you don’t like/don’t understand/don’t care about surfing, much will be lost on you as it was on me.
Along the way Peter meets a young woman scientist who is also working to stop the construction and they form a strong bond.
At times the book was very interesting and Mr. Prosor has a magical way with words when he is describing anything to do with nature. He is not so magical when it comes to dialog. It’s also not a book that is going to appeal to people who don’t believe that climate change is real because it plays a major role in the book.
