At last! A book that I can really enjoy reading to my children at night. Not that I don't enjoy reading to them; but, this is a truly exceptional story:
High adventure, Heroes (Sky pirates), Villain (a corrupt government), flying galleons & floating islands!
This is just the kind of story I'd have read myself!

Can't wait to work my way through the whole series with them...
A tale set in the time of Quint. The story follows that of a sky-battle between the Galerider, Wind Jackal's ship, and the Great Sky Whale, a formidable slave ship. Special release for World Book Day 2001 and no longer in print - although Cloud Wolf is now the first five chapters of The Curse of the Gloamglozer in the most recent UK edition of the book.
