Riassunto

"It's Treasure Island meets The Outsiders... a grand adventure not to be missed." —Haris Orkin, award-winning author of the James Flynn Escapades

Who you are could be the thing that gets you killed.

Fifteen-year-old Bonnie Hartwright is a foster kid with no past, no family, and no future. After one too many run-ins with the law, she’s labeled incorrigible, yanked out of juvie and shipped off to a reform school on the storm-lashed Carolina coast.

But this is no ordinary school. It's a covert training ground for a centuries-old secret society of misfit teens, all descended from one of history’s most notorious pirates. With swords to master, seas to sail and stars to navigate by, these digital-age outcasts are preparing for a battle against a shadowy enemy that wants them—and their legacy—erased.

But as a dangerous storm brews on the horizon, Bonnie begins to unravel a terrifying truth—a bloodline curse that links her forgotten past to a deadly destiny.

The only way to survive is to uncover who she really is. Before the darkness claims her forever.

Fans of Rick Riordan and Erin Bow will love its fast-paced action, supernatural mythology, and story of found family that breaks your heart before it puts it back together.

The Pirate’s Curse trilogy is a swashbuckling coming-of-age adventure where ancient secrets collide with modern rebellion. Packed with romance, sword fights, and magic, this is the YA fantasy you didn’t know you were waiting for.

Are you brave enough to set sail?

Su questo libro

Informazioni sull'autore

Toni Runkle and Steve Webb have always loved telling stories. After becoming friends as graduate students at the USC School of Cinematic Arts, they worked separately in the movie and television industry for a number of years before coming together to write novels for young readers. Their first book, Glitter Girl, was called "...an empowering message about striving to be true to oneself..." by Kirkus Reviews. Toni loves scary movies, her garden, and trips to the beach. Steve loves baseball, not-so-scary movies, and a good cheeseburger. Both writers are married (not to each other because that would get weird) and live in Southern California with their respective families.
