"e;Takes us to a place of almost mythic power and tells a story that unfolds like a long ride on a killer wave . . . compellingly written."e; -Sebastian Junger, New York Times-bestselling authorRising from the depths of the North Pacific lies a fabled island, now submerged just fifteen feet below the surface of the ocean. Rumors and warnings about Cortes Bank abound, but among big wave surfers, this legendary rock is famous for one simple (and massive) reason: this is the home of the biggest rideable wave on the face of the earth. In this dramatic work of narrative nonfiction, journalist Chris Dixon unlocks the secrets of Cortes Bank and pulls readers into the harrowing world of big wave surfing and high seas adventure above the most enigmatic and dangerous rock in the sea. The true story of this Everest of the sea will thrill anyone with an abiding curiosity of and respect for mother ocean."e;A terrific, deeply researched tale about a truly wild place. You couldn't make up Cortes Bank, or the characters who've tried to make it theirs."e; -William Finnegan, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life"e;A first-rate account of an amazing phenomenon and the people who tried to conquer and exploit it. A great read."e; -Winston Groom, New York Times-bestselling author of Forrest Gump"e;After reading Chris' most excellent account of the monstrous waves of the mysterious Cortes Bank-the Bermuda Triangle of the Pacific-I never thought I would ever consider riding a wave like this. But after surviving a five-foot, head-first fall from the stage earlier this year, I think I might be ready."e; -Jimmy Buffett
