I have just finished reading this book and I honestly didn’t put it down all weekend! The plot is excellent and the world Paul Stewart has created is truly brilliant. It follows Quint, a sky pirate on the fantastical world of the Edge. He travels to the great city of Santaphrax where he becomes the apprentice of the Most High Academe of this city. The characters are fascinating with their personalities and the intrigue of the answer to the question ‘What is the terrible Gloamglozer?’ was with me right to the end of the book. There are seven other books which are sequels to this brilliant which I would advise for anyone, even if they’re don’t think they like fantasy, to read. A great read.

Thanks for your review Jack. Have you read "Wyrmeweald" by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell yet? We have a sgined copy in the school library. There is a possibility that Paul and Chris may be visiting us in 2011 as part of their national tour, but it may be in August when we're not in school!
