The second book in a fast-paced series steeped in Colombian
mythology and full of adventure, perfect for fans of Aru Shah and
the End of Time and Percy Jackson. In this tale Tor, Engle, and
Melda must stop a band of cursed pirates from taking over their
home. Tor is adjusting to life with the Night Witch's powers, with
his best friends Engle and Melda by his side. But when a mysterious
girl named Vesper washes ashore claiming a band of cursed pirates
is on their way to Emblem Island, life changes fast. Vesper is from
an underwater city that was destroyed by the terrible Calavera
pirates and she warns Tor that his village is next. To stop the
pirates, Tor, Engle, and Melda join Vesper on the hunt for the
famed Pirate's Pearl, an ancient relic that would give them
complete control of the high seas. But the journey is perilous,
filled with legendary sea creatures that are determined to see them
fail. To save his village and everyone he loves, Tor must accept
his new abilities-and use them-in the race to find the pearl.
