Sebastian Darke, his opinionated buffalope, Max, and the fierce fighter Cornelius are heading to the bustling port of Ramalat to embark on a perilous sea journey. They are ready to risk their lives in search of the fabled lost treasure of the pirate King, Captain Callinestra. But first, they must make it through the dark and mysterious forest of Geltane and
survive an encounter with the beautiful and bewitching Leonora, a powerful enchantress with a magical hold over Sebastian’s senses. And, as if that wasn’t bad enough, little do they know that, when they finally reach Ramalat, a feisty female sea captain, an infamous young pirate, ravenous sea creatures, and furious sea battles await them.
But there’s no turning back. Will they discover the lost treasure? Will Sebastian live to tell the tale? Will Max ever stop moaning?

From the Paperback edition.
In Prince of Fools (2008), Sebastian Darke wanted to be a court jester, but just didn’t have the comedic chops. Here, he leaves the intrigue of court life behind for adventure abroad. Along with his faithful companions—a talking buffalope named Max and the half-pint-sized warrior Cornelius—Sebastian hits the high seas in search of a buried treasure. The witty banter of the three heroes often skews closer to petty bickering and is used excessively to pad the scanty plot. But all the right elements—monsters, curses, and treasure—are present in another good-spirited adventure with plenty of light drama. Grades 7-10. --Ian Chipman
