All the action, humour and swashbuckling adventure of Percy Jackson and Treasure Island!

Synopsis

DEADWEATHER, a sweaty little pirate-infested island, is home to EGG, thirteen years old and prey to a pair of cruel and stupid older siblings.

But when Egg’s family disappears in a freak accident, he finds himself living on SUNRISE island with the glamorous Pembroke family and their feisty daughter Millicent. Finally, life seems perfect.

Until someone tries to throw him off a cliff.

Suddenly, Egg is lost in a world of cutthroat pirates and powerful villains. Only Millicent - and a one-handed, possibly deranged cabin boy – can help him as he hurtles into the deadliest adventure of his life . . .

"I ripped through it in one day, which is really fast for me, and if you like adventure novels, I highly recommend you grab a copy." Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series

Critic Review:

Thank you to the Discovery Club reading group for these great reviews:
"I liked the cliffhanger ending and the fact that I knew there was going to be another one. Write the next book quickly please Geoff Rodkey." (Charlotte, 9)
"It's not what I would normally read (I like Robert Muchamore) but I'm glad I tried it because I found it exciting." (Conner, 10)
"I'm not really keen on pirates but once I got into it, it got really interesting." (Eve, 10)
"It was unexpected and kind of a mystery. It was gripping and you didn't know what was going to happen next. I liked the fact that it had blood and a little bit of romance. It had 'goremance!'"(Zoe, 10)
"I liked the descriptive writing and I'm really picky about what books I like."(Nathan, 9)
"I liked the fact that the pirate talk was authentic."(Jamie, 10)
"It's like a cake where you wanted to eat more. It's intriguing with spectacular description and good characterisation."(Ava, 10)
