"The Blackwells face zombie pirates, terrifying mermaids, and a shipwrecked group of cursed ship’s figureheads in Philippa Dowding’s latest in the Weird Stories Gone Wrong series, Blackwells and the Briny Deep (September)." 49th Shelf Most Anticipated Fall ListSo honoured that the 49th Shelf has chosen my fall release as one of their most anticipated middle grade books for Fall/2018, thanks guys!
Blackwells and the Briny Deep is book 5 in the award-winning
Weird Stories Gone Wrong series, and is a good old sea yarn. The three Blackwell kids have to put their bickering aside to figure out how to survive the enchanted island they're shipwrecked upon, and eventually learn a thing or two about what really matters along the way.
I've sailed the Great Lakes (and a few times in salt water too) most of my life, and I've been dying to write this story for decades.
So happy it's COMING SOON!
