Skybreaker by Kenneth Oppel

Floating 20,000 feet above the rest of the world is the Hydrion, a ledgendary airship containing huge amounts of treasure. Lots of people are willing to kill to find it, but only one person in the world has its coordinates.

Good. Not as good as Airborn, I think. Not as interesting. Maybe too unbelievable. This probably sounds weird coming from someone who passionately defends King Arthur and dragons, but this book is sci-fi, and should have some...fact? I don't know what to call it.

Making zucchini bread today. This is the second round of making zucchini bread with a 16 inch vegetable. Never seen one so big.
