A review by gnostalgia
The Aylesford Skull by James P. Blaylock

5.0

While the story is part of a series, I had no problems with what I would call a stand-alone story. The story has a quick pace and the characters are fleshed out well (even the secondary characters). The 44 chapters are short and the book is hard to put down. Some of the chapters have that old movie serial cliff-hanger feel.

Airships, pirates, magic, I was hooked from page one and hated to see the adventure end. I loved the cliff-hanger chapters that forced you to come back for more. All in all it is an excellent book and I enjoyed every minute of it.
