;D I'm so excited, It's coming out THIS YEAR! I've now written 22 books for children and young adults, and one for adults. My latest book, AIRBORN, is a fantasy adventure set in an imaginary past where giant airships ruled the skies. Take a look at the fictional world I've created for Airborn at: www.airborn.ca. I've just finished the sequel, called Skybreaker, which will be published August 2005 in Canada, September 2005 in Britain, and November 2005 in the United States.... www.kennethoppel.ca/k_mainframe.htm |

I think everyone should start praying that Liam gets to play Matt, because if he does the first one, he would probably be signed up for the sequel ;D SKYBREAKER . . . I like the sound of that  |

And spread Liam/Airborn wherever you go so we get good media buzz around his name - AND the book, because the book has to sell well  |

Skybreaker Summary The control car of the giant airship is almost entirely encased in ice, the ship's name barely visible on her tattered skin: Hyperion. Matt Cruse can't believe his eyes. Can this really be the legendary lost craft, now a frozen coffin to a ghostly crew and a vast treasure? At 20,000 feet, aboard a decrepit training ship, Matt is almost unconscious from the high altitude, but of all the oxygen-starved crew, he alone remembers the Hyperion's coordinates. Suddenly it seems that everyone is after those coordinates. Kate de Vries, Matt's rich, young lady friend, has her reasons. But what about the strange gypsy girl and the handsome captain who's going to pilot them back to the Hyperion? In an adventure that is about to test his courage, his skill and his heart, Matt is about to take off on the ride of his life. The bookcover will be this (but I only hope this is the Canada version, 'cause I don't really like it. I hope the US gets a different one like the last book): www.harpercollins.ca/firstlook/title.asp?titleid=251 |

Well I was reading the book I was picturing it as the movie playing in my mind, with Liam as Matt. Any way I started bluching bright red when Matt begins running away from the Pirates village, and he was pulling up his pants because he took off his belt. I pictured that with Liam and got all just the though of his pants going around his knees and him pulling them up makes me giggle like a little girl  |
