[LM_NET] BOOK: Clash of the Sky Galleons by Stewart

[Frederick Muller <mullinator52@GMAIL.COM>]

Stewart, Paul and Chris Riddell. Clash of the  Sky Galleons [Edge
Chronicles #9]. David Fickling,  2007  [978-0-375-83742-5]
Quint's father, the great Sky Pirate goes out on a mission to find and kill
the person who burnt his estate, thus killing his whole family.  The leagues
have been planning for years to get rid of the sky pirates and when Quint
and his father are away with his crew, the leagues make their final plans.
This 412 page book ends with the big battle.  Will the Wind Jackal (Quint's
father) kill his enemy?  Who will win the massive sky batter between the sky
pirates and the leagues?  Will Quint have to forget his studies and spend
the rest of his life as a sky pirate?  This is what appears to be a great
wrap-up of the series (although it is not stated as such.)  There is an
epilogue at the end of the book which follows up on things years later which
makes me think this is the end of this series.  This series is an
interesting and creative group of stories that has thoroughly engages a
group of my students.  I just LOVE the illustrations.
