Incredible

Just two words: read it! Okay, I can't leave it there. I loved the pseudo-Victorian language which made me think of HG Wells and Jules Verne, the amazing mix of genres, a fantastic villainess in the form of Archan and the best fantasy heroine fo years in the form of Annie. And the sideways world of Stone is just an incredible idea, flawlessly conceived and described. You'll get vertigo with this book, I guarantee it!

A different way to view your existance

Stone and Sky is Graham Edwards forth book, and it is one of the most imagingative and mind boggling stories I have read. It is a loose continuation of his Dragon books and they are not necessary to enjoy this marvelous story. Now, all I have to say is that I loved this book... From the detailed and breathtaking eruption of Krakatoa to the arrival on Stone this book is impossible to put down. It takes a while for your perception to focus on living on a totally vertical world, and you will find yourself continually looking to the front cover of the book, just to make sure your imagination and inner eye are focussed right. The characters are fully realised, from the forthright Jonah to the amazing Annie - even when she is host to the fiendish dragon, Archan. To detail this book any more would spoil the brilliance - just read it - and then wait for book 2 like I am - with bated breath.
