SKYBREAKER

by Kenneth Oppel

HarperCollins Publishers Ltd | July 28, 2008 | Mass Market Paperbound

Pushed high into the sky by a storm over the Indian Ocean, the decrepit training ship Flotsam makes an astonishing discovery before being forced to descend. Adrift at 20,000 feet is a tattered, ice-crusted airship bearing the name Hyperion. Could it really be the legendary lost craft, now a vast treasure, a frozen mausoleum to a ghostly crew?
    Matt Cruse is the only member of Flotsam’s oxygen-starved crew able to remember the ghost ship’s coordinates—and it seems as if everyone in the fabulous city of Paris wants them. Matt and Kate de Vries are challenged with another thrilling adventure, this time among the icy dangers and strange wonders of the upper atmosphere.
    Hang on for the ride of your life as Kenneth Oppel, one of Canada’s greatest children’s authors, returns to a richly imagined world of airships and adventure!

Good Book!

SkyBreaker was a good book. I loved the part when they were going too high. I like that part because I never knew that you could die if you went too high in a plane. Therefore I learned something.

This book was the longest book I have ever read. It took me about 2 weeks to read it. I give this book 4 leafs out of 5 because the book had action but it sometimes got boring. I recommend this book to people that like reading airplane books (not an actual airplane though). I kept on visualizing it looking like a pirate ship in the sky. You people should read this book because this book is a pretty good book.

Sincerely,
BrotherDuck xD

First of all you can go beyond the atmosphere in some planes. No offense. In a regular airplane the cabin is pressurized so that at increasing high altitudes people are able to survive. Compared to when they were going high in the zeppelin or whatever, it was not pressurized.
