Editorial Reviews
“Swashbuckling.”
—Columbus Dispatch
“Brian Jacques and his cast do an exceptional job bringing this tale to life. The characterizations are well complemented by Jacques’ winsome brogue. The other characters are performed with great expression and energy, as well. There is also music for transitions between chapters and sides, as well as a good number of songs that are quite delightful.”

“[A] big, sprawling adventure…the story deliver nonstop action, pithy dialogue, and esoteric sea lore.”
—Horn Book Magazine
“This charming yet haunting story of a boy and his dog, fated by an angel to wander the earth for eternity doing good deeds for others, will appeal to any reader looking for the next step after Avi’s The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle.”
—VOYA
“Rousing…Vivid language, larger-than-life characters, and multiple story lines yield a sprawling, epic tale. Anyone, young and old, who enjoys being immersed in big, romantic adventures, will love this series.”
