#53 Along the Saltwise Sea by A. Deborah Baker

 

This is the direct sequel to Over the Woodward Wall , the children’s book that featured in Middlegame. Zib and Avery are continuing their journey to the Impossible City with the Crow Girl and Niamh.  They fall into debt with a pirate captain after seeking shelter for the night in her cottage. A week’s worth of work for the night’s stay seems to be an ok trade with the pirate crew treating them fairly well. But there is a mystery on the ship and a book of Up and Under fairy tales that will bring the mystery to light. 

This is more of a middle book in the series and the children still have more traveling to do. Not sure where their journey will take them but it is a fun ride.
