"Airman" soars

I bought "Airman" for a grandson and he loved it. He said that he highly recommended it. He is 13.

Fun read for fans of Colfer

If you are waiting for Eoin's next Artemis Fowl book to come out, pick up Airman. It is a well-written novel for young adults, or the young at heart. The novel comes across as a different version of the "Count of Monte Cristo" tale, but with a bit more wonder and, I think, a better ending. In the tradition of Artemis Fowl, our young hero in Airman gets more than he bargains for in a few situations, but all turns out well as he keeps his promises, and in the end, gets the girl.

I would definitely recommend this book if you are a fan of Artemis Fowl, the Inheritance (Eragon) trilogy, the Septimus Heap series, Harry Potter, and other excellent books in this realm. I am an adult who enjoys young adult fiction of this sort and it only took me a day to read Airman, which is not to say it is a short read, but that it held my attention and kept me wanting to read it.

Hurrah for Eoin Colfer!

Great characters, well crafted and entertaining

This one doesn't involve Artemis but it's still well worth reading; interesting story line, characters you care about, the requisite struggle against evil, and a truly bad "bad guy."

Wonderful story

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. A great story for young and old!

Wonderful Treat!

I am a fan of Eoin Colfer's other books, so I was eager to sink my teeth into this new one and I was surprised to discover that Mr. Colfer has outdone himself with this latest imagining which gives us a hero who might be out of Jules Verne or H.G. Wells but who is also unmistakably a Colfer character, as witty as he is intelligent. I fell in love with Conor and his dreams of flight. I only wish it could have lasted longer.
