I'd wished they'd make a sequel to this book because I enjoyed it
alot. It was also amazing how Eoin Colfer decided to make The
Saltees as a habitable place for Humans to live, even though ity
was abandoned for almost a century.
Connor Broekhart was born a Aviator at birth, he was actually born
in an hot-air Balloon. After returning to the Saltees Connor grows
up to be a bright young man also known as "A swashbuckling
scientist" by Isabelle, his friend. He is trainted by Victo Vigny,
a fellow Aviator was sees that Connor has potential to be an
airman. So Connor is trained to be a swordsman as well as a
scientist. Then one night Connor discovers that Bonvilian (A
general of the king) is planning a plot to assasinate King Nick.
Bonvilian successfully kills Victor and the King and blames Connor
as a murder and so he is sent to the little Saltees for a life
time.Connor spends two years in Jail becoming Connor Finn,a fierce
Battering ram (Someone who is trained for all attacks) with
brains.Connor plans a escape by air, he successfully escapes. He
plans to go America and become a famous scientist, but his plans
are thwarted when Bonvilian discovered that he escaped. Bonvilian
threatens to poison the Queen and his family and blame it all on
the airman (Connor). Connor builds a engine powered airplane to
save Queen Isabelle and his Parents. In this battle Bonvilian
drinks the poison at falls downwards towards the saltee oceans and
he dies.
In the ending Connor is to go to Glascow University in Ireland and
the story ends with Isabelle sayig goodbye to him.
