Matt, 15, works as a young cabin boy aboard an fantastical airship. He meets Kate, a wealthy young girl traveling with her chaperone, and teams up to search for the existence of mysterious winged creatures and fight pirates. Both have lofty ideas about their future but would be content with just making it back home in one piece!

This book is one of my favorite of the group. It is a fantasy with a twist of science fiction, romance, and historical fiction all rolled into one! It is a great read and has one of the COOLEST websites EVER!!
