The Swallows and Amazons are sailing with Nancy and Peggy’s Uncle Jim (better known as Captain Flint) when their hired deckhand tells them a tale of his younger days – a tale to set pulses racing and hopes shooting sky high. Soon their boat is on its way to a Caribbean treasure hunt and they find themselves up against shark, storm, earthquake – and the vilest pirate who ever eavesdropped at a porthole.

Good, but quite long. My favourite character is Titty and Susan.

I liked it but i thought that some bits were not as well described as they could have been. Over all, i really enjoyed it and it really made you feel like you were there most off the time.

Adventurous, I liked Roger best like in the first book. They went through an earthquake.

I don't know who I like best they are all very good characters. I'd definitely recommend this book to people who like adventure. There are twelve books in the series and this is the third one so you'll want to make sure you read it in the right order!

This book is about a treasure island. It features the Swallows and Amazons and Captain Flint. It is set in the Caribbeans. They sailed there in a schooner from a place called Lowestoft somewhere on the east coast of England.

This is the third book of the Swallows and Amazons series. When the Swallows and Amazons meet up with The Amazon's uncle, they set sail on a vessel called the Wild Cat with a sailor called Peter Duck. Peter Duck tells them a tale about treasure being buried when he was young. Unfortunately an enemy follows them and wants Peter Duck to show them where the treasure is but in the fog the Wild Cat loses the enemy. When they reach the island where the treasure was buried they start to dig. Suddenly an earthquake starts and the diggers have to stop. Read the book to find out whether the treasure is found.
