What Our Customers Say...
Description
Decorative Binding, First Edition, Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding
The first edition, first impressions of these works.
In the publisher's original decorative cloth binding.
Two adventure novels from prolific English children's author Enid Blyton, 'The Castle of Adventure' and 'The Ship of Adventure'.
Both books feature the series' same characters: Philip, Jack, Dinah, and Lucy-Ann, following the group as they discover and solve mysteries.
'Castle' is the second book in the 'Adventure' series, and the group attempts to figure out what is behind the strange goings-on at a ruined castle near Spring Cottage in Scotland.
In 'Ship', the characters plunged into an exciting quest to find the lost treasure of the Andra - with some ruthless villains hot on their trail.
Illustrated throughout by Stuart Tresilian.
