C'est un bien étrange équipage que celui de la Baleinière Lunglance. Son capitaine, Nils Desperandum, n'a qu'une idée en tête : savoir quels monstres hantent l'océan de poussière dont est entièrement couverte la planète Nullaqua. Son cuistot, John Newhouse, ne s'intéresse quand à lui qu'à la baleine des sables, dont l'huile donne une drogue pourvoyeuse de rêves et d'hallucinations. Mais tandis que Desperandum pousuit obstinément sa quête, Newhouse tombe sous le coup d'une autre dépendance : celle de sa passion pour la Vigie Dalusa, la femme chauve-souris dont l'étrange beauté l'a fait chavirer et qui lui rendrait volontiers son amour... Si elle n'était allergique à la peau humaine... Un roman d'aventure tout imprégné de réminiscences (Moby Dick, Vingt mille lieues sous les mers, Dune) mais transformées par l'alchimie d'une imagination neuve et brillante.
