Reckless Endeavor: A Jack Rackham Adventure

RECKLESS ENDEAVOR A Jack Rackham Adventure is the second installment in the award winning Jack Rackham Adventure Series. These books were written for early/mid teens, but the response from adult readers/fans & teachers has been very positive. This is a fast-paced adventure, one that will grab and hold the reader's attention.

From the Inside Flap

From WORUMBO Author Mark LaFlamme: As a reader, I made the same mistake I made when I began the first Jack Rackham Adventure - BAD LATITUDE - I assumed it was a book written largely for young people and that it would be short on grown-up chills. Again, I was wrong. The Hardy Boys, I'm afraid, would not last a night with Jack Rackham and his friends. In addition to high seas spooks - freak whirlpools and long-dead pirates rising from the mist - there are adult themes all over the place. Homelessness, loyalty, betrayal, love and greed among them. Ebright weaves them into his story without steering away from the action, and the result is a high-seas page turner.

From the Back Cover

Dead ancestors should stay dead. 16-year-old Jack Rackham sets sail from St. Augustine with three friends aboard the magnificent schooner, Reckless Endeavor, to search for Aztec gold. Calico Jack, hanged for piracy in 1720, crashes through the barriers of death and time to join his young descendant in the hunt. His diabolical schemes will prove deadly and the painful brand of his curse will leave an indelible mark on one of the teens forever.
