Omar the Immortal

I actually quite enjoyed this novella! I found Omar to be an intriguing character and I am looking forward to discovering what the future holds for him. I would recommend this to fans of steampunk & fantasy. ( )

Another awesome book by this author. I rarely buy books, but I have bought the ones I did not win through librarything.com. Loved every one of them. Waiting for the next one to come out! ( )

The Lost Airship is a steampunk short story with swords. The characters don't have enough time to be fleshed out, but the time the reader does spend with them they appear to have some depth. The plot is very interesting, and leaves many questions to wonder about. There are several books connected to it and this small taste makes the reader want more. In short: Well written and satisfying short read. ( )

This quick steampunk/fantasy novella only took me a few hours to read. I didn't know what steampunk was so I had to look it up after seeing some other reviews refer to this as steampunk. This is basically the story of Omar Bakhoum as he embarks on a journey aboard an airship in search of a land called Ysland that is thought to have large amounts of sun-steel.

I enjoyed this story and look forward to reading more about the character of Omar. I did get enough information to where I didn't feel like I was missing anything but I would have liked some more background on the characters and the world. I read right through this novella and thought it ended a little too quickly. I look forward to reading the next in this series which is waiting on my Kindle along with one from this author in the Halcyon series.

This book was written clearly and is perfectly suited for a teenager looking for a good fantasy ride. It is the first book out of this series that I have ever read and I was able to understand the world quickly. It was a little short and felt as though the author wanted to fit more in a short timeline. This leaves the reader feeling a little rushed. That said the action in the book was great and readers can look forward to an epic scene involving an aircraft and lightning quick ninja reflexes. Its a fun read and suggested if your looking to be entertained.
