Curse of the Forgotten City is a fantastic sequel to Curse of the Night Witch filled with adventure on the high seas, terrifying creatures, and an unforgettable journey.

The second book in a fast-paced series steeped in Colombian mythology and full of adventure, it is perfect for fans of Aru Shah and the End of Time and Percy Jackson. In this tale, Tor, Engle, and Melda must stop a band of cursed pirates from taking over their home.

Tor is adjusting to life with the Night Witch's powers, with his best friends Engle and Melda by his side. But when a mysterious girl named Vesper washes ashore claiming a band of cursed pirates is on their way to Emblem Island, life changes fast.

Vesper is from an underwater city that was destroyed by the terrible Calavera pirates, and she warns Tor that his village is next. To stop the pirates, Tor, Engle, and Melda join Vesper on the hunt for the famed Pirate's Pearl, an ancient relic that would give them complete control of the high seas.

But the journey is perilous, filled with legendary sea creatures that are determined to see them fail. To save his village and everyone he loves, Tor must accept his new abilitiesβ€”and use themβ€”in the race to find the pearl.
