Adventures of the Steampunk Pirates: The Leaky Battery Sets Sail

Publisher: Stripes Publishing

The Steampunk Pirates are a motley crew of mechanical men who sail the high seas hunting for gold.

Once obedient servants of the royal family, the pirates were liberated from servitude but are now on the run from the evil Iron Duke who is determined to capture them and claim a rich reward from the king. But the pirates are after a reward of their own - the secret alchemy that will solve their problems with rust and make their fortune at the same time. 

Witty, engaging text is complemented by humorous pen and ink illustrations and clever characterisation making this ideal for newly independent readers.
