Egg is a great but unlikely hero to follow along through these adventures. The book starts off a bit slow, but once the groundwork has been laid, Egg finds himself in ordeal after ordeal filled with non-stop action. Plus, he has totally fallen for Millicent, but pursuing her is complicated to say the least. Things seem to be turning up for Egbert, but they quickly turn treacherous and he is thrown into an endless succession of predicaments on land and at sea in which he must save his own life, then the ugly fruit plantation, and perhaps the whole future of the islands. On Sunrise the family comes in contact with the rich, powerful and seemingly kind Roger Pembroke and his beautiful, sharp-tongued daughter Millicent. One day his dad comes back from the volcano’s side acting unusual and immediately takes the family on an unexpected trip to the nearby beautiful Sunrise Island. Deadweather is basically a stinky volcano sticking up out of the middle of the ocean, and the only other thing on the island besides his family’s orchard is a port town infested with pirates.
