A review by mousie_books
Sunwing, by Kenneth Oppel
3.0
Shade, Marina, Chinook, Ariel, and Frieda investigate the secret of the bands, and find humans to be less altruistic than legend would have them believe.
Silverwing was boring, and I would not have continued on to Sunwing if I did not already own it. Surprisingly, I liked the book. It was fast and fun, and hard to put down. It bothered me that the plot was so close to making 'real world' sense, from the point of view of the bats, but the mystical bent annoyed me. (Yes, yes, the talking bat, rat, owl story wasn't realistic enough for me.) I have the next the series, so I'll definitely read on. However, I'm looking forward to it more now than I was before this book.
