Edge Chronicles 5: The Last of the Sky Pirates

This series is amazing-- I love it! The author/illustrator collaboration is really special. I even ordered two books from the United Kingdom Amazon because they won't be published here for a few more months. :)A caution: some of the Edge Chronicles are very dark/have imagery which may be too disturbing for young readers. (For example, an earlier book features a serial killer who chops off the toes of his victims and keeps them in a massive pile! Yikes! A chilling moment for readers.) This book is the first of 3 volumes which follow the story of Rook Barkwater, a young librarian knight. The Rook Barkwater books seemed less disturbing to me than some of the earlier books. They are really enjoyable, full of endearing characters and heroism. So... if your kids are old enough, you may really enjoy reading the Edge Chonicles together.

Great series! Wont post any spoilers will simply say this is a great starter series of books to get kids into reading.

My Grandson hates to read-but loves this series! He gets so "into" the stories he reads for a long time with no complaints!

My students are enjoying this series

A MUST HAVE FOR YOUR COLLECTION!

just keep these coming. They are strong but good. Excellent drawings. The detail of writing and drawing inspires my son.

love this book

The book just couldn't catch me in the beginning but once it got me it galloped away with me holding on tightly!It's been written in the wrong...ah, way (don't want to give away any spoilers) with such amazing surprises! Absolutely astounding imagery and the added drawings show more than I would have seen.
