BLIMEY! It's something all pirates are taught when they're very young, but too many forget: never get on the wrong side of a librarian. Especially if the librarian is a lemming! The bookish Sylvester Lemmington simply wants to hunt down the facts. Everyone else just seem more interested in hunting down Sylvester. Especially so, after he becomes the accidental owner of the most sought-after treasure map of all time. Now, Sylvester must deal with the humdrum of pirate life voodoo magic, cannibals, lethal carnivores, mutinies and magical treasures. 'The Tides of Avarice is a Treasure Island meets Redwall romp and just too darn much fun to put down' Foreword Reviews 'The book reminded me of Terry Pratchett and I couldn't help chuckling as I read' Madhouse Family Reviews 'It is constantly inventive, full of edge-of-the-seat excitement and did I mention that it is also hilariously funny?' John Grant, Hugo and World Fantasy Award Winning author
