Amazon.com has posted the cover art, as well as a new teaser, for Voyage of Slaves:
Adrift in the Mediterranean Sea, Ben falls captive to a band of slave traders and their leader Al Misurata. With his faithful dog Ned at his side, Ben must plot escape as the ship of scoundrels sails up the Libyan coastline toward Italy, where a trap awaits. Ruthless enemies and hard times appear around every bend, but Ben and Ned have quick wits to rely on and, just as important, one another.
There’s some confusion surrounding the exact release dates for Voyage of Slaves– Amazon has moved up the previously announced U.S. street date from September 21st, 2006 to September 14th, 2006 (ISBN 0399245499), while a May 15th update on Redwall.org announced that the U.K. edition would be moved up from October 5th, 2006 to September 13th, 2006 (ISBN 0670913243). Oddly, Redwall.org made no mention of a U.S. release date. We’ll try to clear things up.
Stay tuned to the Newsline for more details.
