Eddie Woo Super Sleuth: a mind for maths and a nose for adventure. A treasure hunt, a piano key, ciphers, a puzzle from the past... Eddie Woo and his best friends Rusty and DT must find clues, crack a musical mystery, scale a lighthouse, discover a secret cave and find long-forgotten gold. But they are not the only ones searching for it...

It begins with an interrupted story. Then, a mysterious box that speaks and sings. Add unusually unusual teachers, incredible lurking from the Lurker, an insect orchestra and a bungling burglar, and it's up to Charlie and Hils to save three innocent bugs from the forces of evil.

Atticus Van Tasticus is back. And this time he means business. Having escaped certain disaster on the high seas, he's on the scent of treasure. Then the call comes from above: 'Ship ahoy, Captain, ship ahoy!' If only it were good news, which of course it ain't. Vicious, mean and mighty unclean Bjorn Ironhead is on the warpath - and Atticus and his crew are in his sights. Stay and fight, or run and hide? But where do you hide a pirate ship, and who's this Captain Half Map, and, most of all, where's that treasure of treasures?

1750, when times were tough and teeth were rotten. As part of an ancient family tradition, young Atticus Van Tasticus narrowly avoids a life down the coal mines - or worse, going to school - when he gets to choose the gift of a pirate ship from his Grandnan's treasure pile. It's a choice that will change the course of history - well, okay, his story, at least. Atticus pulls together a ragtag bunch misfits - ahem - a tough, brilliant crew and sets out to wreak havoc - I mean, live a piratin' life.

By November 1915 they know that that there is more to winning a war than courage. The Gallipoli campaign has been lost. Nipper has played cricket with the Turks in the opposing dugout, dodged rocket fire and rescued drowning, freezing men when the blizzard snow melted. He is one of the few trusted with the secret kept from even most of the officers: how an entire army will vanish from the Peninsula over three impeccably planned nights.

Too-Sweet, a southern girl with a yen for adventure, flees Japan and lands in the sun-kissed embrace of Queensland, Australia. Ten miles north of Cairns, she stumbles into a wild business venture with her Yakuza partner and an endearingly shady Japanese counterfeiter. Their shopping list? A crocodile farm, a jungle boat, a twenty-unit motel, and—wait a giant bar. But this isn’t just any bar. Too-Sweet christens it, The Naked Pygmy, because apparently, in Australia, dwarf tossing at bars is a national sport. And why not? It’s a land where kangaroos box, wombats moonwalk, and emus have ...
