The Terror of the Southlands

Caroline Carlson brings the unceasing wit, humor, and fun of the first book in the series to this epic sequel. Fans of Lemony Snicket’s Series of Unfortunate Events and Trenton Lee Stewart’s Mysterious Benedict Society will love this quirky tween series and hope to join the league just like Hilary!

Hilary Westfield is now a bona fide pirate, but when her daring, her magical know-how, and even her gargoyle don’t convince the VNHLP that she’s worthy of her title, the Terror of the Southlands, she sets off with her crew on a high seas adventure.

But then Miss Pimm disappears and Hilary decides to find the missing Enchantress and protect the magic of Augusta.

Don't miss this adventure-filled pirate romp!

Being a nearly honorable pirate is harder than it looks—especially when saving a friend means breaking all the rules.

• A Fearless Girl Pirate: Hilary Westfield traded finishing school for the high seas, but proving she's the “Terror of the Southlands” to a league of stubborn scallywags is her toughest challenge yet.
• An Unlikely Sidekick: Featuring a loyal, wisecracking gargoyle who's more interested in dictating his memoirs than being a fearsome beast—most of the time.
• Magical Mayhem: When the kingdom's powerful Enchantress vanishes, Hilary must follow the clues to protect Augusta's magic from a mysterious new group of villains.
• Friendship and Loyalty: A funny and heartfelt adventure about choosing your crew, defying expectations, and learning that sometimes being honorable means breaking the rules.
