No one escapes from the Sea Witch's tower. Don't try, because you will be left on the rocks for the crows to peck your eyes out by day - and the Zombies will devour what's left of you at night. The Dog Pirates are fattening skinny Stevie Rump up with tasty morsels because Gledwyn the Sea Witch prefers plump children to eat. But it's not all scary at sea and on land with Stevie. His friends Bruce the fat and furry ship's cook and Fergal his scrawny assistant bring a sense of fun to their adventures in the magical elements of these beautiful Caribbean islands. But Bruce is enjoying life there too much. Can his mates persuade him to return before he turns into a mercat? Will Stevie rescue his parents before the power of the amulet wears off? And can Selena, queen of the mermaids, win the final battle?
