Like generations of her family before her, young Dunstana Darkstone is a pirate. And since someone has to look after Dunstana, her big sister Kat is more or less a pirate by association. Kat may not be thrilled by this arrangement, but it’s what big sisters are for, and it gives her plenty of chances to practice her own adventuring skills. Join the Sisters Darkstone as they (mis)adventure through the lands of Realmgard, facing off against cunning ghosts, ambitious rivals, and dangerous bandits. Whatever Realmgard has to throw at them, the Sisters Darkstone will face it together. The first three Realmgard stories, together at last! This handy single-volume edition collects Fryte’s Gold, The Treasure of Oake Island, and The Bandits of Goldharbour, with eye-catching all-new illustrations.
