Krakatoa Lighthouse

0/5 ( ratings)

Historic Fiction about the events in Java in the lead up to the massive volcanic explosion of Krakatoa.

From book blurb
Suddenly there was a trench across the beach, about ten meters away from the fishermen, where before there had been nothing but flat sand. The fishermen moved quickly away as the trench heaved grey ash across the sand. They sprinted when it hurled black rocks at them.

Kerta didn't want to go to Krakatoa.

He knows that a dark spirit, Orang Aljeh, is there and he is terrified he might wake it. But Kerta is there on the volcano, and the Ghost of Krakatoa has woken up.

A powerful story of survival and loss based on the real-life events of the Krakatoa eruption in 1883.
