Boy Thrown into Pirate World! Is it a Dream? A Curse? Or the BEST Adventure EVER?

PIRATE COVE, TORTUNA, Haiti - Aug. 14, 2024 - PRLog -- If the sea spit you out, thrusting you back into the age of pirates, buried treasure, and beauty beyond belief. . . would you stay? Ricky Bradshaw is about to find out, as he learns that some dead men do tell tales—and of a terrifying sort.

Eddie Jones' first book in the Caribbean Chronicles series, Curse of the Black Avenger, is a clean, fun, and fast-paced pirate adventure perfect for older middle-grade readers and young adults.

RICKY BRADSHAW has never sailed the Spanish Main, searched for buried treasure, or battled pirates on the deck of a Spanish Galleon. He's never fallen through the floor of Davy Jones' locker, skippered a pirate vessel, or saved the life of a governor's daughter. But that all changes when Ricky falls into the chilly waters of a creek while trying to rescue Barnacle, a mangy mutt with shrimp breath.

Now Ricky finds himself on a raft in the middle of the Caribbean Sea where there is surprising beauty on every island, danger around every corner, and great honor and glory for all who can survive the curse of the Black Avenger.

Ricky's journey home and back to normal life is more than just an adventure. It's a story filled with faith, virtue, and integrity. Beyond the swashbuckling action, Curse of the Black Avenger teaches lessons in self-discipline, honesty, kindness, and character development, while exploring themes of resilience, courage, friendship, and family.

Parents can trust that this Selah Award-winning book is a wholesome, exciting tale that blends action with lessons in compassion, humility, and responsibility. Ideal for teens, young adults, and older kids, Curse of the Black Avenger offers a story that resonates with those who feel different (Ricky suffers from absence seizures, a type of epilepsy that causes a brief change in awareness — his portal back in time). In the world of pirates, we're all a little strange.
