The Pirates of Orion's Belt

Meserplunkt is a pirate captain of a ship called the Silver Raven. While on the Pole, a planet used by pirates for carnal pleasures, Meserplunkt finds a map to the Dragonworld, and the treasures hidden there. Before he can steal the treasure he must thwart the plans of his mutinous first mate and then avoid the intrigue of a civil war taking place on the Dragonworld.

As a young boy, Meserplunkt learned of the location of the second legendary treasure. A planet where jewel fountains provide all the treasure a pirate could desire, if they can keep the planet from eating them, ship and all.

RanJon was not aboard the Silver Raven, Meserplunkt's ship, when she disappeared on their quest for the treasure, a fact that would haunt him until RanJon met Britney, a bouncy blue eyed brunette who would gather a crew in an attempt to rescue the pirates on the Silver Raven. With the help of three dragons, and two brothers who can speak to planets, Meserplunkt and crew escape the cursed planet.

On the planet Tortuga, the owner of the bar, Condo Martin, has apparently died. As pirates from around the sector come to pay their respects Meserplunkt and Griff learn of another legendary treasure on a planet that is accessible only when two ships act in tandem. Together they go to the planet and find a Midas fountain. Now they must find a way to get the treasure safely off the planet.

A mysterious box and a disappearing tattoo are the keys to unlimited treasure, as well as the final nail in the coffin for the Trading Company, the bane of Meserplunkt and the other Pirates of Orion's Belt. When Percy returns, bent on revenge against his former captain, it becomes vital that Meserplunkt rally all pirates in the sector to defeat Percy and the Trading Company, once and for all.
