Journey to Atlantis by Philip Roy

Journey to Atlantis by Philip Roy

In this sequel to his best-selling novel Submarine Outlaw from 2008, Alfred, the intrepid young submarine outlaw, once again sets out to sea in his homemade submarine. In Journey to Atlantis, Alfred and his crew - his dog Hollie and his second mate the seagull Seaweed - sail across the Atlantic and enter the Mediterranean in search of the fabled lost island of Atlantis. Alfred must be both practical and trust his premonitions on many occasions to stay safe on this ambitious and far-reaching adventure. From a daring rescue of drowning fishermen to becoming involved in a skirmish between Canadian coastguard ships and Spanish fishing trawlers, from escaping an exploding WI sea mine to colliding with a partially submerged container filled with toys, from turning the chase on bumbling pirates to an unscheduled camel trek into the desert, Alfred's submarine voyage brings him closer and closer to the legendary island until one moonless night he finds himself a little too close for comfort.

Roy, Philip: - Philip Roy lives in Ontario with his family. Whenever possible, he visits the places he writes about in the SUBMARINE OUTLAW series. From 1999 to 2001, he lived on the island of Saipan, which features in GHOSTS OF THE PACIFIC. Recently, he travelled to India to research the fifth book in the series, OUTLAW IN INDIA, and to South Africa for book six, SEAS OF SOUTH AFRICA. Book seven, ECO WARRIOR, is set in Australia, which he has also recently visited. The eighth book in the SUBMARINE OUTLAW series, STEALTH OF THE NINJA, will be set in Japan, and is due out in the spring of 2016. Travelling makes for great adventure, Philip contends. The only thing better is writing about it and visiting schools to share the stories and research with young readers. Along with the SUBMARINE OUTLAW series, Philip is also the author of two children's/YA historical novels, Blood Brothers in Louisbourg and Me & Mr. Bell. He has also recently published MOUSE TALES and JELLYBEAN MOUSE, his first two children's picture books in the HAPPY THE POCKET MOUSE series. MOUSE PET, his third book in the series, will be published in the fall of 2015.
