Airman

Airman, by Eoin Colfer, is the story of a boy, living on a island, that wants to build the first flying machine. Although this seems ordinary the book eventually leads into a plot of assassination and political corruption. I can't tell you much about it because if I did, it would ruin the story. There is also tons of detail put into the book (the history of the island that the airman lives on could convince you that it's real). If you like Artemis Fowl you will like this book. I think this book should be rated 9/10.
