DEAD CALM, BONE DRY IBD

Sinopse

If you were forced to sail with pirates . . . captured and tried for piracy . . . and sentenced to hang . . . would you trade your body to the crew of the 'Flying Dutchman' in order to save your soul? Ricky did. Some dead men DO tell tales. And there is stolen treasure in this pirate story.âÿà 2018 DirectorsâÇÖ Choice Award Winner Finalist âÿàLast winter Ricky Bradshaw was another gangly freshman hoping to fit in -- or at least not get picked on -- and maybe catch the attention of Becky Nance, a girl in his biology class. Except sometimes Ricky 'zones out' in class because he has absence seizures. If youâÇÖve never heard of absence seizures, thatâÇÖs okay. A lot of people havenâÇÖt. RickyâÇÖs teachers are a lot of those people.And thatâÇÖs what happened to Ricky last Christmas Eve: he had an episode and ended up in pirate land. WhenáDead Calm, Bone Dryábegins, Ricky is on his way to be tried for piracy. In the shipâÇÖs brig he is about to learn that some things are worse than being unpopular in high school.áMUCH worse.áLike sailing to . . . Well, we best let Ricky tell the account. It is his story, after all.Christian Books for Tweens and Teens - review'In this sequel toáCurse of the Black Avenger,áhigh school freshman Ricky Bradshaw has evaded Captain LaFoote, only to land in the brig. Now he faces the hangmanâÇÖs noose at the hands of British authorities. The charge? Piracy. His fellow inmate, the mysterious William Shakespeare, seems to give good advice . . . And yet after the commodoreâÇÖs daughter, Rebecca, denounces Ricky before the tribunal, Rickyábarely escapes by cliff diving, only to awaken in another, if possible darker dream-if it is a dream. Still Ricky has one more chance to save a crew of orphaned children, win RebeccaâÇÖs heart, and find his deceased father before itâÇÖs too late.'This is a book boys will read, loaded with speculative fantasy, dry humor, a strong dose of violence and with a sprinkling of romance.áDead Calm, Bone Dry, continues RickieâÇÖs journey through mayhem and betrayals and what becomes more and more like a living hell. His quest mirrors his struggle to forgive, and with life and death and heaven and hell in the balance, Ricky must choose.'The Caribbean Chronicles is one of those series were the first book seems incomprehensible without the second. But for those who will soldier through, thereâÇÖs great entertainment value, along with a powerful and uplifting spiritual message.'christianbooksfortweensandteens.com/books/dead-calm-bone-dry-caribbean-chronicles-book-2-eddie-jones/
