Mysterious Island

As famine and death ravage Richmond, Va., five northern Civil War POWs plan a daring escape by hijacking a hot air balloon. Drifting through the night, they wake to find themselves marooned on a desert island - but they're not alone. Littered with wreckage, the island is home to a cast of survivors who have been lost in space and time. Forced to defend themselves against vicious pirates, terrifying creatures and a volcano that's ready to blow, they must find a way to survive. But will they make it before the island claims them all forever?
