“It is the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships’ cables and hawsers. A Polar wind blows through it, and birds of prey hover over it.”
So Melville wrote of his masterpiece, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history. In part, Moby-Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and legend, the book can be seen as part of its author’s lifelong meditation on America. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby-Dick is also a profound inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.
In the dark depths of the bottomless sea dwells a white demon, taking shape as the Leviathan known as Moby Dick. One year ago, the malefic brute crunched off the leg of the ungodly Captain Ahab, who now swears revenge. So runs the epic tale of Moby Dick, the supernal work of Herman Melville. In this unabridged production, you will walk with the young sailor Ishmael through the fires of life on a whaling vessel. Each character is brought to life by the narration of B.J. Harrison, who also turns Melville’s sometimes over-potent expository information into an easily digestible treat.
Note—This book has 135 chapters plus epilogue, etc, too many for me to separate and name. I have divided it into tracks of about 60min each.
A tie-in. For a true story of a whaling disaster there are two seeded torrent on site of—
In the Heart of the Sea - Nathaniel Philbrick. One is m4b and one is mp3.

Error reported–
I reversed two tracks,
“File ‘005 Moby Dick Or, the Whale.mp3′ picks up in Chapter 16 just after file 003.
File ‘004 Moby Dick Or, the Whale.mp3′ contains Chapters 21 through 27, and belongs between current files ‘005′ and ‘006′.
Thank you, bghanoush, for reporting it
Chapter 16 is one of the longest so I split it to keep parts even, screwed up and numbered wrong.
I will replace in the future….J

Does anyone know if this Moby Dick sequence has been updated?
I’m a little confused about the renaming instructions to listen in the correct order. Thanks.

@brassy: As of Nov 19/23, the filename error is still there. Here’s the easy fix.
Open the folder of mp3s and Right-click on
“004 Moby Dick Or, the Whale.mp3″
and select Properties.
On the General tab, change “004″ to “xx5″ in the filename (this is a temporary change we will edit later).
On the Details tab, change the # from “4″ to “5″.
Click OK.
Then right-click on
“005 Moby Dick Or, the Whale.mp3″
and select Properties.
On the General tab, change “005″ to “004″.
On the Details tab, change the # from “5″ to “4″.
Click OK.
Then go back to the first file and change the name from “xx5″ to “005″ following the same steps.
