En la isla de los Estados, una isla de la Patagonia argentina, donde se confunden los océanos Atlántico y Pacífico, habita una banda de piratas dirigidos por el terrible Kongre. Estos piratas se dedican a atacar embarcaciones que encallan en la zona. Su modo de vida se ve seriamente amenazado cuando el gobierno argentino construye y pone en funcionamiento un faro (el llamado Faro del Fin del Mundo) que dejan al cuidado de tres fareros. Los piratas dan muerte a dos de ellos, y dejan con vida únicamente al jefe, Vázquez, que ha logrado ocultarse.

En La isla misteriosa se aprecia la admiración de su autor por la ciencia aplicada, tan presente en toda su obra, sintetizándola a través de uno de sus personajes que encierra en sí mismo el conocimiento y la capacidad de adaptación al medio del hombre: el ingeniero Cyrus Smith. Dicho personaje, dotado con un amplio conocimiento general, articula la historia y la hace verosímil. El libro forma parte de una trilogía que además componen Veinte mil leguas de viaje submarino y Los hijos del capitán Grant.

Quand la fougue se heurte aux vagues du réel, il suffit d'un grain pour faire chavirer tout un monde. Ici, un naufrage—peut-être d'un navire, peut-être d'une vie—met à nu ce qu'on croyait enfoui: les silences, les élans, les pertes et ce qui surnage malgré tout. Entre houle et accalmies, se dessine une traversée où l'on mesure le prix des choix, ce qu'il faut abandonner pour continuer, et la force têtue de l'espérance.

An unbreakable name. A buried fortune. A century of silence. In 1832, George Diamond—son of a Royal Navy captain turned privateer—committed his greatest act of defiance. To protect his family from the shifting tides of Caribbean politics and the greed of empires, he scuttled his ship, the Diamond’s Edge, in the indigo depths of a secret Blue Hole. With it went a legendary hoard of silver and gold liberated from the Spanish fortress of Omoa.

Es ist Februar. Eisiger Wind treibt die Wellen gegen die Küste der Ostseeinsel Fehmarn. Der Himmel bleibt auch am Tag düster. Kalter Regen fällt.

Entführt, isoliert und einem Gegner ausgeliefert, der keine Gnade zu kennen scheint, beginnt ihr bisher schwerster Kampf: der ums eigene Überleben.

When Spain joined the Seven Years War on the side of France, one of its aims was to conquer Britain’s ally, Portugal. They launched three separate land invasions, each of them ultimately unsuccessful, but each a deadly, existential threat to their neighbour. Portugal, meanwhile, was determined to hit back at Spain’s sprawling colonial empire, and the Debatable Lands between Brazil and the River Plate Estuary offered a tempting target.

When he returns, the ship has vanished. With crew and passengers on board. Modern-day pirates hijacked the boat, hoping to collect a lucrative ransom.

Bloody Nick returns from the Mediterranean tired—he has done too much, seen too much, and needs rest at home. His ship, HBMS Hawke, needs time in the yard. A year of half-pay leaves Nick rested and anxious to get back to sea. He is close to the top of the Captain's List and automatic promotion to Rear Admiral must be due in two to four years—the actual date varying at the Admiralty's convenience. Captains sitting at home without a command are more likely to be yellowed, made without squadron, and never employed again.

The Mediterranean Fleet under Lord Collingwood is at its greatest ever—more than a hundred vessels—and is far too small for the tasks demanded of it. The French have invaded Spain, their former ally, and are ravaging the land in a fashion unseen since the Thirty Years War in the Germanies. The Barbary Corsairs are resurgent, slaving and raiding across the whole Sea. The Two Sicilies, an ally, has collapsed into corrupt desuetude. Turkey is rumbling in the East, and there is a renewed Russian interest in the old aim of achieving access to warm waters from the Black Sea.

In 1856, Lieutenant Henry Aaron Bird makes a startling discovery: a speechless, shipwrecked young girl, living a feral existence on a remote Pacific island. When he exhibits her as a "wild girl" in the chaotic sprawl of early San Francisco, this golden-haired child without a past will be seen by the populace as a scientific curiosity, a titillating image of female savagery, or, for many, a symbol of the unspoiled body of that young country. For Bird, she is a fragile ward in need of protection, whom he keeps drugged and confined when not using her to further his reputation.
