Midnight Over Sanctaphrax by Paul Stewart
Far out in open sky, a ferocious storm is brewing. In its path is Sanctaphrax - a magnificent city built of a floating rock and tethered to the land. Only Twig, a young sky pirate captain, can save the city, but first he must venture into the Deepwoods and beyond.
