I just bought the book this past weekend. I've read a bit, and so far it's really good. Not that I didn't expect it to be.

I HAVE IT!
Took me a while, but they gave me the call the other day and I went straight in to pick it up!
It was fabulous! I just sat there thinking, "Woah. Awesome." And then my mind exploded!
I just... Just, wow.

I just read it and I enjoyed it a lot. It reminded me of the Count of Monte Cristo. I actually liked it more than the Artemis Fowl series.

Of course, the saltee islands are little island estates in ireland owned privately by an irish baron. and kregdsty bonvillin might be a greek general a long time ago. And there is also history of a turkish nobleman by the name of arif

I've got to do a huge novel study  and I chose this book. It was good and I really enjoyed reading it. The book was so long my reports were huge... I can't wait to see if Colfer comes out with a second book!

Hey, that's right, it DID remind me of the Count of Monte Cristo...him getting revenge and all.

I did not even know that it was new! I just saw it at the library, freaked out, and checked it out, thinking that perhaps I had always just missed it. I loved it! I was very glad that I saw it first, because my older brother already has dibs on The Time Paradox first, and even though I get Inkdeath, I love everything by Eoin!!!!
My favorite characters were probably the entire Broekhart family. Victor was cool, Isabella was nice when she was older, and the king was good, but the Broekharts rocked! I liked Otto Malarkey.

Airman was definitely one of eoin's better books, if not the best. I loved it and I couldn't put it down. I didn't expect it to be like that at all; it was better than I expected too.
