Author:Geoff Rodkey
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 SUNRISEisland 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 . . .
***All the action, humour and swashbuckling adventure of Percy Jackson and Treasure Island***
I ripped through [Deadweather & Sunrise]...I highly recommend you grab a copy. Once you've read the first book, you'll be drying to find out what happens for Egg and the gang. I know I am!
