<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Wooding delivers the follow-up to "Retribution Falls," bringing back the ragtag, sky pirate crew of the "Ketty Jay" in an all-new adventure.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Chris Wooding, author of the thrilling novel <i>Retribution Falls, </i>returns to a fantastical world of spectacular sky battles and high-flying heroics for another epic adventure.</b> <p/>Deep in the heart of the Kurg rainforest lies a long-forgotten wreck. On board, behind a magically protected door, an elusive treasure awaits. Good thing Darian Frey, captain of the airship <i>Ketty Jay, </i> has the daemonist Crake on board. Crake is their best chance of getting that door open--if they can sober him up. For a prize this enticing, Frey is willing to brave the legendary monsters of the forbidding island and to ally himself with a partner who's even less trustworthy than he is. <p/>But what's behind that door is not what any of the fortune hunters expect, any more than they anticipate their fiercest competitor for the treasure--a woman from Frey's past who also happens to be the most feared pirate in the skies.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>"The Black Lung Captain</i> is as good, and dare I say it, even better than the first. . . .
