Summary
In 1519, after the death of his parents, fourteen-year-old Mateo Macias becomes cabin boy to Ferdinand Magellan on a dangerous journey in search of a route to the fabled Spice Islands.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: ORPHANED BY THE plague and penniless, Mateo must find his way in the world. By chance he is made a cabin boy on the celebrated voyage of Captain-General Ferdinand Magellan. The destination is secret, but the crew whispers that Magellan will be the first to sail east to the Spice Islands by going westâand everyone shall return with untold riches.
At sea, Mateo discovers the meaning of friendship, loyalty, and hard work, as well as the delight of first love. But when the ocean rages and brother turns against brother, both Mateo and Magellan are in dangerâand itâs not clear if anyone will survive. . . .
âTorrey deftly maintains the taut thread of adventure that, along with the cast of memorable characters, keep the pages turning.ââPublishers Weekly, Starred
âThis deserves to be in the hands of every reader who loves history and adventure.ââKirkus Reviews
