Aladdin and the Flying Dutchman

By Piers Anthony and J.R. Rain

The world is in danger. Again. And only Aladdin can screw up saving it quite this spectacularly.

King Aladdin thought he'd finally earned a quiet life with his pregnant wife Jewel, a sarcastic magic ring (or two), and a kingdom that mostly didn't hate him. But when a monstrous kraken attacks on the high seas, he's forced to join Sinbad the Sailor aboard the legendary Flying Dutchman. Their mission? Stop the Key to Hades from falling into the wrong hands-a key capable of unleashing Hell itself.

Unfortunately, "wrong hands" might include Aladdin's own. Between a seductive sex-slave with mysterious motives, a ship haunted by restless ghosts, and his stepson Duban's unsettling magical prophecies, Aladdin navigates a tangle of curses, sirens, and backstabbing thieves. His quest will take him to the flooded remains of Eden, to barter with ancient angels, battle giant sea monsters, and ultimately confront the unthinkable: a sentient, all-knowing Flying Dutchman determined to sail them straight to the gates of God Himself.

But when the ship's new, omniscient figurehead decides it knows best, Aladdin and his crew must use every last scrap of wit, luck, and storytelling magic to change its course-before they all pay the ultimate price.

Witty, bawdy, and brilliantly irreverent, Aladdin and the Flying Dutchman delivers a swashbuckling finale full of magic, peril, and heart. J.R. Rain and Piers Anthony close their Aladdin Trilogy with an epic, genre-bending adventure that's as wisecracking as it is wildly imaginative.
