Synopsis

An action-packed tale of a shipwrecked youth and a crew of highly educated apes, where danger and mystery loom on a far-off island.

On a world of voyages and ventures, a young merchant keeps a growing menagerie of apes, training them in tricks and defense. When a ship captain buys one fierce companion, the story widens to a perilous voyage across unknown waters, with rival pirates, a sleeping volcano, and a hidden journal that may reveal the truth behind vanished settlers. The book follows a clever boy and his clever captives through suspense, daring, and unexpected loyalties.

  • Meet the most intelligent apes, from loyal Ben Bolt and Sweet Alice to the formidable Goliah and Magog.
  • Experience tense moments on the voyage, and the struggle to outwit danger from both man and beast.
  • Follow clues inside an old journal as characters confront a jungle of secrets and threat.
  • Feel the pull of adventure on a remote island and a mystery that could change everything.
Ideal for readers who crave classic adventure, animal intelligence, and frontier mystery set against a perilous sea journey.
