Fly by Night - Fly by Night, Bk 1
Author: Frances Hardinge
Twelve-year-old Mosca Mye hasn't got much. Her parents are dead, her cruel uncle keeps her locked away, and her only friend is her pet goose. But she does have one small, rare thing: the ability to read. In a world where books are dangerous things, this gift will change her life—but it may also be the death of her.

This really is a fun, fast-paced, exciting read with fascinating characters. I'm inclined to agree with Mosca's statement that I'd prefer more story to a happy ending, and I'm really hoping the author writes a sequel.

Highly recommended.

It's fantastic! The humor is excellent, the wit is scorchingly bright, and the book keeps you turning pages like a geas. Mosca caught my eye because of Volpone's Mosca, and Mosca Mye is a perfect heir to that heritage... Marvelous, marvelous book!

I too want a sequel. Heck, anything more by Frances Hardinge would suit.
