Among them is Mort, but rather than hunt for treasure, hes more interested in looking for his family who are lost at sea. Unfortunately, his shipmate Punky has her eyes firmly on the prize.
But when the pair find the tentacle of a mythical sea creature, their adventure takes a dramatic turn. Is this the prize-winning treasure Punky and the queen seek Or could it be a monstrous twist in Morts rescue mission
The second book in a wickedly funny series about an aspiring pacifist in a brutal kingdom, perfect for fans of the How to Train Your Dragonseries, Frostheartand The Nothing to See Here Hotel.
