About the Book

For Sage Smiley, summer vacation doesn't just mean a break from school. It means finally going on adventure with his favorite uncle, Dunkirk Smiley (a.k.a., "Uncle Duncle"), who just happens to be a world-famous explorer. Sage can barely contain his excitement when Uncle Duncle announces they'll be flying in his World War II Supermarine Spitfire, and using the powers of a magical talisman to go wherever Sage would like.

But the aerial adventure goes awry when Sage's imagination brings them to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, a perilous destination teeming with murderous pirates, treacherous allies, and man-eating sharks. Together they must free a group of prisoners from the clutches of Long John Silver, lay claim to the glittering chests of pirate treasure, and fight for their very lives.

Can a typical boy like Sage find the courage and the craftiness to survive in this land of legends?

This exhilarating adventure introduces young readers to Robert Lewis Stevenson's literary classic, Treasure Island. From the tales of Uncle Dunkirk's international travels to the origins of the WWII Spitfire that he flies, Uncle Duncle teaches about the many real-life wonders of the world around us, and illustrates how great literature can come alive!

REVIEWS

"Darren Krill has given us the next best thing to a sequel (to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island). Krill keeps his audience guessing right to the very end. This is a fun read, and since Escape From Treasure Island is billed as the first in The Uncle Duncle Chronicles, readers can look forward to more adventure down the road." - Quill & Quire

"This light-hearted mix of Krill's and Stevenson's characters works quite well, whether the reader is familiar with Treasure Island or not. It would be all too easy for Krill to cross the line into absurdity with a plot such as this, but he handles the blend of existing fiction and his own creation beautifully." - Children's Literature

"'With wings of wind, I fly' is destined to become a catchphrase of a new generation of young readers." - Edmonton Journal

"It's a rollicking adventure, in a style that's not been seen for years." - Edmonton Sun

"...Scintillating...Krill wants to be Edmonton's JK Rowling. Make that DK Rowling. He's well on his way." - Edmonton Examiner

"...A big, new Canadian hit in not time!" - Lloydminster Meridian Booster

"Four stars! Highly recommended! Non-stop fun and action! A great read!" - Canadian Materials - Manitoba Library Association
