Treasure Island meets Battlestar Galactica in Book 2 of the
swashbuckling sci-fi adventure series SLJ called "space opera in the
classic style" in a starred review, from New York Times bestselling
author Jason Fry.
It's been a tough year for Tycho Hashoone and his family. Hostilities
between the Jovian Union and Earth have reached a boiling point. The
privateering business hasn't exactly been booming. And the ongoing
contest for the captain's seat of the Shadow Comet has the three
Hashoone siblings perpetually on edge. Then the Hashoones intercept a
ship--one with a long-dead crew, its final mission a warning to all who
seek their fortunes in space. The Hashoones don't have time for ill
omens; they need a payday. Following clues from the mysterious ship,
they embark on a hunt for the long-lost treasure of the Iris--a
treasure that Tycho's own great-grandfather Johannes had a hand in
hiding. But in his quest for the Iris cache, Tycho is going to dig up
much more than he bargained for. Because like old pirate treasure,
family secrets never stay buried for long.
Filled with action, intrigue, and one unforgettable family, The Jupiter
Pirates: Curse of the Iris takes readers across the depths of space and
brings the Jupiter Pirates saga to new heights.
