We are thrilled to be revealing the cover for Jen Calonita’s The Curse Breaker!
Releasing on March 10th 2026, The Curse Breaker is the second installment in The Isle of Ever series and it’s now available to preorder here. Now read on to discover the cover and synopsis, plus Jen kindly answered some questions about the sequel!
The game is far from over. In fact, it’s only just begun.
Having finally reached the Isle of Ever, Everly “Benny” Benedict thinks she’s won the game of clues her ancestor Evelyn Terry set out for her in her will. Only she can’t prove it yet—not until her new friends are safe from the curse that has kept them trapped for centuries!
And now there’s a new game. It turns out that Evelyn has more secrets in her diary and another task for Benny: to find the lost piece of pirate treasure needed to break the curse once and for all. It won’t be easy. One of her best friends has betrayed her; the kids from the island are just discovering twenty-first- century life, and a mysterious stranger mentioned in Evelyn’s diary has somehow turned up in present-day Greenport.
Benny has to figure it all out in just a few days. If time runs out, someone else can claim the inheritance, and the Isle of Ever will disappear again for another two hundred years!
Q: What can you tell us about book two in the ISLE OF EVER series?
A: Readers were left with so many questions at the end of book one. I can promise they’ll get lots of answers–and be left with many new questions!– when they read book two, THE CURSEBREAKER. I can’t wait for them to meet a new pirate in this story. Her name is Grace, and unlike Captain Kimble, she is not ready to give up treasure that makes her immortal.
Q: For readers who haven’t read ISLE OF EVER yet, and want to before they read THE CURSEBREAKER, what would you say it’s about?
A: I’d tell them it’s an adventure-mystery that has a dash of Pirates of the Caribbean sprinkled with National Treasure. The main character, a girl named Benny Benedict, has learned she’s inherited a huge fortune from an ancestor that she can only collect if she finds a mysterious island off the coast of Long Island, New York, that doesn’t exist on any maps. It’s filled with riddles, and clues, is told in two timelines (1825 and 2025) and has a mystery I have spent years thinking about.
Q: Can you spill one secret about THE CURSEBREAKER for us? Just one?
A: Look closely at the cover of the new book for clues! Like with the ISLE OF EVER cover, all the items on THE CURSEBREAKER cover tie into the mystery. Study the cover and you’ll get a headstart at cracking book two’s riddles!
