Back BlurbEarhart's desire
Blythe is a flight attendant with a fear of heights -- and she's flying deep into uncharted territory.
Plucked from the secure, sterile world of jumbo jets and airport terminals, she's been launched into a stratosphere of conspiracies, terrorism, and technology so advanced it may as well be magic. And she's been taken under the wing of the world's most famous, and mysterious, pilot: Amelia Earhart, alive and soaring after all these years.
How did Amelia survive her disappearance? What is the centuries old secret behind the devices that enables her to travel the known (and unknown) world using nothing but dreams for fuel? And what is her real agenda for Blythe? The answers will find Blythe charting a course for the edge of reality -- and the heart of the man she loves.
G. Willow Wilson and M.K. Parker, the acclaimed creative team of CAIRO, take to the skies with their Eisner Award-nominated series as AIR: FLYING MACHINE provides a provocative look at the places both mind and machine can take us.
