About this book
<b>“Well known for his Redwall books, Jacques here turns his attention to the human world, and his fans will not be disappointed.” —<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b><br><br>A boy and dog trapped aboard the legendary ship, the Flying Dutchman, are sent off on an eternal journey by an avenging angel, roaming the earth throughout the centuries in search of those in need. Their travels lead them to Chapelvale, a sleepy nineteenth century village whose very existence is at stake. Only by discovering the buried secrets and solving the dust-laden riddles of the ancient village can it be saved. This will take the will and wile of all the people-and a very special boy and dog! <br><br>"In <i>Castaways of the Flying Dutchman</i>, Brian Jacques takes a bold and brilliant creative step....It's exciting to see a front-rank author rise to a new challenge-and his readers are the fortunate beneficiaries."<b> —Lloyd Alexander</b>
