In the tradition of Treasure Island , an unlikely young pirate races a band of devious rogues to a hidden fortune in Sea of Gold , the first book in a middle-grade series by New York Times bestselling author Gregory Mone.
Includes Black-and-White Illustrations.
Armed only with wit, courage, and determination, Fish leads his new friends in the fight of their young lives and a hunt for hidden gold.
Yet with mutiny on the horizon and a ruthless first mate testing him at every turn, Fish isn\'t sure he\'ll survive, let alone find the Chain.
Swabbing the deck of the Scurvy Mistress , Fish will have to earn the trust of the fortune-obsessed captain and learn the ropes from the rest of the crew, including a boy encyclopedia on all things piracy, a tough-as-nails young thief, and a fearless girl with knives up her sleeves.
And the mysterious package? It\'s the key to locating the Chain of Chuacar, a legendary treasure.
But after his parents send him to work as a courier, one of his deliveries is stolen, and as Fish hurries to get it back, he\'s captured by a ship of scalawags.
For starters, he\'s just a kid from a poor farming family, and second, he absolutely hates to fight.
Twelve-year-old Fish--nicknamed for his skill as a swimmer--never intended to become a pirate.
