Airman

Author: Eoin Colfer (I just learned from a fan site that it's pronounced "Owen" :)
Plot Summary: Conor Broekhart, born in a hot air balloon, seems destined for greatness. But when he is framed for crimes he didn't commit, he is sent to the inhumane prison island of Little Saltee. While there, he realizes that the only way to escape is flight.
Review: I liked it. I won't say I liked it more or even as much as Artemis Fowl, but it was still worth reading. It was full of everything a good story needs: great characters, a hint of romance, and plenty of action. (Also, I pretty much want to marry Conor.) *Ahem* Anyway, try it. Tell me what you think. I'll give it a B+.
