It was almost two years since he asked Blessica to marry him when the two met each other in the small town of Twickenham City, Mississippi. He once told her that she captures his heart like no one else. That was not enough to stop her from disappearing out of his life without saying a single word after his marriage proposal. Heartbroken as Everton was, this was not much of a shocker for him. He has been on the journey to find his true love, and his encounters with the ladies always had some twist. On a late fall night, a phone call from Blessica would force Everton to confront painful memories. Can the power of love fix it all?

Download or read book Airborn written by Kenneth Oppel and published by EOS. This book was released on 2004-05-11 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sailing toward dawn, and I was perched atop the crow's nest, being the ship's eyes. We were two nights out of Sydney, and there'd been no weather to speak of so far. I was keeping watch on a dark stack of nimbus clouds off to the northwest, but we were leaving it far behind, and it looked to be smooth going all the way back to Lionsgate City. Like riding a cloud. . . . Matt Cruse is a cabin boy on the Aurora, a huge airship that sails hundreds of feet above the ocean, ferrying wealthy passengers from city to city. It is the life Matt's always wanted; convinced he's lighter than air, he imagines himself as buoyant as the hydrium gas that powers his ship. One night he meets a dying balloonist who speaks of beautiful creatures drifting through the skies. It is only after Matt meets the balloonist's granddaughter that he realizes that the man's ravings may, in fact, have been true, and that the creatures are completely real and utterly mysterious. In a swashbuckling adventure reminiscent of Jules Verne and Robert Louis Stevenson, Kenneth Oppel, author of the best-selling Silverwing trilogy, creates an imagined world in which the air is populated by transcontinental voyagers, pirates, and beings never before dreamed of by the humans who sail the skies.
