This book was a perfect combination for me: treasure hunting, haunted house (or air ship), weird dead millionaire, high seas (sky) adventure and kraken (or air jellyfish). Oh, and pirates. There's always pirates.

In Skybreaker, Matt Cruse and Kate de Vries go an epic adventure that takes them high into the Earth’s atmosphere where the air is very thin and bitterly cold. Matt, now a student at the Airship Academy, is honing his navigating skills aboard a small airship when it becomes swept away with a terrible storm.

The storm takes them high into the sky where they are ill-prepared to go. In fact, the crew of the ship nearly dies! But, while they are in the storm, they catch sight of a ghost ship - the Hyperion - a ship that has been lost aloft for 40 years. The ship is fabled to have untold riches aboard, so when Matt returns to the academy, it isn’t long before he is approached by several individuals looking to return to the Hyperion to recover the wealth that is certain to be aboard.

Not only are their lives threatened by the harsh elements they face at 20,000 feet, but they are also pursued by mercenaries hired to destroy the Hyperion. It seems impossible that Matt and Kate will survive their adventure! Will they recover the old ship and the wonderful mysteries that it carries? Will they escape the mercenaries? Will they find anything of value that might help to cover the costs of all they have lost on their journey? The only way to know is to listen to this audiobook or go find a copy of the book to read right away! Believe me, you don’t want to miss this one.
