I love that the ending is so interesting that you can't wait to read the next volume. In any possible way you can't just stop reading it , cuz from the start tell the end the story is exciting and you will never get bored of the scenes.
I read this entire series when I was a preteen or young teenager. I LOVED each and every one of these and I waited impatiently for each new installment. Being an avid Disney fan and the POTC ride in Disney World is my favorite, and the POTC movies were among my most-watched movies, I could not contain myself when my dad found these for me in the book store. Although I have not read them in years, I remember them fondly and I strongly recommend them to anyone who likes pirates, tie-in novels, or just exciting adventuress. I think these would be a hit for reluctant readers as well (even though I did not classify as a reluctant reader, these grab you quickly and are pretty easy to get into).
I bought the first to volumes in this series a few years ago. We were going on vacation to a southern beach and I thought that the kids would enjoy a pirate story (especially since they liked PotC).
I walked into the local library yesterday and found that they had a whole series of these (11). I checked out the ones that I had not yet read and will read my way through.
These are not bad for the childrens' books that they are. So far the Jack Sparrow of the story does not jibe with the Jack Sparrow of the movie. Going to wait until the end of the series to see if they sync up more.
