Beneath the Ocean of Sky, heroes will rise.

Her best friend, Kipling, and a Grounder boy with a skyship will take to the air in pursuit, but all three will face dangers they've never imagined. The aerial ocean is a turbulent place full of deadly creatures and cutthroat pirates. If they hope to survive, they'll need to fight for their place in the Heights and confront those who have already claimed it.

Follow the adventures of three unlikely heroes as they abandon the safety of home to seek a destiny aloft in the clouds.

Fans of grand science fiction universes, steampunk airships, and daring pirate adventures will discover a thrilling new world of action, villainy, and friendship.

Spectacular!

The adventure, the visuals, and the emotions this elicits make it another epic tale from Van Coops. If you’re into adventure, thrills, and sci-fi you have to hear this!

Great

Definitely lives up to the book. Easy to distinguish between characters. A really enjoyable listen

Ummmm, just didn’t do it

Well I have read EVER Van Coops book and LOVED all except this one. Nothing really wrong with it just couldn’t get into the characters. Several times had to rewind and figure out who was doing what.

Enjoyed this story immensely!

Quite clever. Great descriptions of alien world. Hope there will be more to come. Thanks!

Nice story

Nice story but much too much narration. Need to hear more from the characters themselves

A pleasant journey into a fantasy realm

the story takes the reader to a world not just worth visiting but one worth returning to again and again for anyone who has ever dreamed of flying this book fulfills those dreams in a wonderful and Charming way

Something is missing...

If you’ve listened to books by Nathan Van Coops before, how does this one compare?

I have read all of Nathan Van Coops's Chronos time travel series and expected similar pacing with wit. However, this book was completely stale and the pace was unbearable. While the world was full of imagination and the qualities of the species were creative, I was not able to connect with any of the characters. It almost made me felt like this book was a side-book that was begging to be finished by Nathan. I am a little more than halfway through and I'm still not yet hooked on the book.

It definitely feels like there is a certain element that i missing from the book that makes me want to continue. I doubt I will finish this one.

What does Jayme Mattler bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The narrator was excellent in narrating the story and emoting the various characters. Tone was easy to listen to (not too bassy or not too squeaky).

boring read and anticlimactic ending..

I think this must have been written for kids, because the pacing is super slow, boring, and shallow. Characters are one dimensional, and the little action in the book is brief and not very entertaining. im sorry to say this book left me feeling cheated :(
