The Map is the Treasure

( Feb. 15, 2016)
Joshua is not a hero. A merchant's son, all he wants is a quiet life at home helping out with the family business.
Unfortunately, he was nice to someone down on their luck, and if there is one thing that will get you noticed by a story more than being awful to pitiful strangers, it's being nice to them.
So now he's working as a privateer-slash-treasure hunter, along with selkies, kelpies and a whole host of other monsters, adrift on a world that is almost entirely covered in ocean, full of mermaids, pirates, excitement and adventure.
Whether he likes it or not.
Note: This is the second book in the Vampires Don't Belong in Fairytales series. It is not necessary to have read book one to read this one, however.
For ages 10 and up until you lose your sense of humor and stop liking pirates and magic and stuff.
