why did i give this book 4 stars

I gave this book 4 stars because the book was amazing and filled with lots and lots of adventure. Me and my class loved the book, we thought that Jack was very sneaky and always getting in and out of trouble. He was our favorite person in the book. The book was well written and very descriptive:) this book was rated by fatman:)

A 7th grader's review, hope it helps!

This book is just another great adventure with the famous Captain Jack Sparrow! To me, because I am a huge "Pirates" fan, it was a fun book to read. With the few full-colored pages of the movie, it help you see the new and old characters. It leaves you with enough info if you haven't seen the movie yet and don't want spoilers. It's something you could easily read though in about a day, if you have to free time. I would recommend this book for 3rd+ grade level readers, "Pirates" fans, and for friends that like a quick read.

Dead Men Tell No Tales - Jack's time is up!

The first Pirates of the Caribbean movie told the story of Jack Sparrow and the Black Pearl. Jack Sparrow was joined on his adventures by Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann. In the sequel, Dead Man's Chest, Jack, Will, and Elizabeth are back for more adventures on the high seas. Davy Jones's curse and the Dead Man's Chest are what the story is primarily about. A long time ago, Jack Sparrow made a deal with Davy Jones. The agreement was that Jack could be the captain of his own ship, but in return Davy Jones would get Jack's soul. Now Davy Jones has come to collect Jack's soul but Jack's not ready to become one of Davy's crew. The story starts off catching up with Will and Elizabeth, who are getting married but instead of wedded bliss, Will and Elizabeth are arrested and thrown in prison because they helped Jack and the new magistrate, Lord Beckett, wants to rid the Caribbean of pirates. Lord Beckett forces Will to leave Elizabeth behind and go in search of Jack. Jack is being hunted down by Davy Jones whose come to collect his soul. Davy Jones commands a terrifying sea monster called the Kraken. Soon after, Elizabeth escapes jail and begins to search for Will and Jack. Things go from bad to worse when Davy Jones raises his ship from the depths and comes after Jack. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest is a great adventure story and recommended for anyone who loves pirates. For adventure lovers, I also recommend "The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches" and "In the Service of Dragons."
