Just one more to go,

This review is from: Clash of the Sky Galleons (Edge Chronicles) (Library Binding)
For those not familiar with the books in this fantastically imaginative series, I'd like to provide a list of the previous books before going into book nine. The series so far is divided into three trilogies, namely the Twig Saga, the Rook Saga and the Quint Saga. The series is sometimes confusing chronologically, as the events of the Quint Saga actually happen first, but the first book of this particular trilogy is actually book four in the series.
Without spoiling the series for newcomers, I'll just say that the character Twig is from the third generation, Rook is from the fifth, and Quint is from the second generation of the character chain. Book 1: Beyond the Deepwoods- Twig Book 2: Stormchaser - Twig Book 3: Midnight Over Sanctaphrax- Twig Book 4: The Curse of the Gloamglozer- Quint Book 5: The Last of the Sky Pirates- Rook Book 6: Vox- Rook Book 7: Freeglader- Rook Book 8: The Winter Knights- Quint Book 9: Clash of the Sky Galleons - Quint There is also a book of four short stories called "The Lost Barkscrolls", and the final book is also allegedly in progress. This book is the last of the Quint Saga, and is a violent and bloody tale of greed, treachery and revenge. Quint and his father are Sky Pirates, in command of the sky ship The Galerider. The story takes place for the most part aboard the ship, as their adventures take them from The Edge to the Deepwoods. Many lives are lost during the skirmishes, whether fighting the weather, carnivorous Bloodoak trees, vicious Shryke warriors or various mortal enemies, making for one of the bloodiest books in the series. Although always interesting, it tends to get carried away at times, making the story a bit longer than it should be. The battle of the title, for example, doesn't get going until way down the book, and then is over all too quickly. However, as is the case with all the books in the series, the illustrations and character names and descriptions make for a quick page-turning read. In order to fully enjoy this book, you'll need to read at least the first two Quint books, but why deny yourself the opportunity to read them all? Highly recommended for all young readers and for bigger folk also - Now where's that movie version? Amanda Richards

5.0 out of 5 stars
Happily received gift,
By Meeshy (Suffolk, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Clash of the Sky Galleons: The Edge Chronicles (Paperback)
As always my daughter is happy to receive another in this adventure series. No idea what they are about, but a 15 year old thinks they are awesome. Generally speaking though my daughter's taste is tomboyish, magic, adventure, horror, so perhaps not for fluffy pink princesses, but who knows!
5.0 out of 5 stars
My son says OMG mum, this book is epic!,

I have picked this nearly new, hard cover book from the "charity book box" in the local church and left 50 pence donation. As I am not an English speaker I am not aware of English children literacy. I just thought the cover is just right and the illustrations inside so very attractive for my nearly 11 year-old fantasy book lover son. I was absolutely right. He loved the book and said it is the best book he ever read in his whole entire:) life.
After 100 pages he has managed to investigate the introduction bits of the book and sadly discovered that the book he is been reading is the last of the first trilogy. Naturally, we have rushed to Amazon tonight and ordered the other two for now. This is the first hard cover book he has read and he wanted me to order hard cover as he now thinks hard cover books feel better. I am glad I came across this book by pure chance.
