Call me Ishmael

After Ishmael's boat sinks, he is thrust into a struggle to preserve the universe from an implosion caused by Eisenhower's retro-active admission of the state of Ohio! Surrounded by a bizarre fellowship, does Ishmael have the right stuff to save trillions of worlds, solve the mystery of his missing father, find love, and discover the perfect boat, all in 48 hours?

"Call me Ishmael. No, I'm not the first one to write that sentence. But this book has nothing to do with a whale, white or otherwise, although a ship features prominently. So humor me, and call me Ishmael."
