BOOK ONE Quichotte et Moi: Et Le Camaquen de la Huaca—Quixote and I: And The Camaquen of the Huaca

ALL IS WELL AT L'ÉCOLE DON QUICHOTTE DE LA MANCHA, WHERE ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD ANTONIA AND HER FRIENDS HAVE STUDIED SINCE THEY WERE SEVEN.

THAT IS, UNTIL BLASCO BREAKS THE RULES AND TOUCHES A HUACA, ONE OF THE SACRED INCAN OBJECTS THAT DON QUIXOTE SAFEGUARDS.

BUT HUACAS HAVE CAMAQUEN—LIFE ENERGY—AND STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN WHEN ONE TOUCHES THEM.

UH-OH. TO SOLVE BLASCO’S LITTLE PROBLEM, IT SEEMS THEY MUST GO TO PERU, AND GET THERE IN TIME FOR THE INTI RAYMI, THE INCAN FESTIVAL TO THE SUN GOD.

IT’S THE YEAR 1595, THERE’S A WAR BETWEEN SPAIN AND ENGLAND—PIRATES PILLAGE AND PLUNDER THE SEAS.

NO KIDS ALLOWED ON THE JOURNEY. EXCEPT BLASCO, OF COURSE. HOW WILL ANTONIA AND HER FRIENDS GET ON THE SHIP?

WITH AN IMPOSSIBLE DEADLINE, DON QUIXOTE’S DECLINING SANITY, EXHAUSTED HORSES, AND AN ENCOUNTER WITH A SUSPICIOUS ITALIAN ACTING TROUPE, THEIR CHANCES PLUMMET BY THE MINUTE.

THEY ARE BLASCO’S ONLY LIFELINE, BUT WITH THE ODDS STACKED AGAINST THEM, WILL THEY SUCCEED?

BOOK TWO Quichotte et Moi: Et Le Camaquen de la Momie—Quixote and I: And The Camaquen of the Mummy

FIFTY-SIX DAYS UNTIL THEY GET THE CHANCE—MAYBE—TO DO A RITUAL THAT WILL SAVE BLASCO.

FORTUNATELY, THINGS GO SWIMMINGLY ON THE SHIP—SUNNY DAYS, FREE THEATER, FUN GAMES, AND BLASCO SAFE INSIDE HIS INCAN-MUMMY DISGUISE.

BUT ANTONIA AND HER FRIENDS MIGHT NOT BE THE ONLY ONES TRANSPORTING SACRED INCAN OBJECTS, OR TRYING TO GET TO THE INTI RAYMI.

AND THERE’S ALSO THAT SMALL LITTLE DETAIL PROWLING THE SEAS—PIRATES.

THREE SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS ROAM THE SHIP, BUT DON QUIXOTE’S PAST KINDNESS TO AN ORPHAN GIRL IS PAYING OFF—SHE IS NOW THE ONLY FEMALE CAPTAIN IN THE WORLD, AND THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP THEY ARE ON.

SURELY SHE CAN PROTECT THEM FROM PIRATES, BUT CAN SHE PROTECT THEM FROM CAMAQUEN? WHAT ABOUT GREED?

ANTONIA AND HER FRIENDS SOON REALIZE THE SEAS ARE A WILD PLACE, WHERE EVERYONE TRIES TO MAKE A BUCK, REGARDLESS OF THE MEANS. HOW SOON BEFORE A COMEDY OF ERRORS BECOMES A TRAGEDY? IN THE CHAOS, ONLY TWO THINGS ARE CLEAR:

JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE SAME DESTINATION DOESN’T MEAN YOU HAVE THE SAME GOALS, AND...

MUMMIES ARE A LOT SCARIER THAN PIRATES.
