Description

THE QUINT TRILOGY, Book II

In the great floating city of Sanctaphrax, blizzards howl through the streets as the Edgeworld descends into an endless winter. Quint, the son of a sky pirate, has just begun his training at the Knights Academy—training that involves heading out over the Edge on tethers to develop his flying skills. But when Quint breaks the rules and sets off for Open Sky on his own, he runs into the great sky leviathans known as cloud-eaters and must use all his skill and ingenuity if catastrophe is not to strike the Edgeworld. . . .

        July 1, 2007
        The eighth volume in the Edge Chronicles series begins with young Quint entering the Knights Academy at a time of great turmoil. Despite the death of his sponsor, he is allowed to join the other squires at the academy on Sanctaphrax (the great city on a floating rock), but as their training progresses, their very existence is imperiled by unusual winter storms of increasing ferocity. Although Stewarts writing and Riddells ink drawings create their own distinctive world, this novel shares charming elements with certain other wizards-academy fantasies and stands alone better than some of its series mates.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2007, American Library Association.)
