Isle of Swords

Isle of Swords

"Isle of Swords" is a pirate novel for young adults. Written in 2007 by Wayne Thomas Batson, also author of The Door Within Trilogy, it tells of sailors, pirates, and a mysterious group of monks all working to get a great treasure, the treasure of Constantine.

The Setting

The story takes place mostly in the real-world Caribbean and in the North Atlantic. No specific dates are given in the novel, but muskets have been invented, and slavery is still around, though only mentioned once with distaste in the book, so the estimated time period is the 1700s.

The Sequel

The sequel, "Isle of Fire", is due out on Sept. 9th, 2008.
