The Quest for the Galleon of Time
Age range 8 to 12
The year is 1738 and eleven-year-old Tobias Crane is forced to leave his home to work as a ship’s lad on a trading galleon. Once onboard, Tobias discovers that the ship is a time-travelling galleon! A galleon that can inexplicably appear in different dimensions in the past, present and future.
A captain’s obsession with revenge will force Tobias and the crew on a dangerous adventure through treacherous waters. With the help of new friends, Tobias must somehow return home to warn his father that he’s in grave danger. Along the way, Tobias faces deadly obstacles made more complicated by the lethal family dynamics of three brothers – one good, one evil, and one dead!
