Skelig is a very well written book, the characters and settings are described with fantastic detail.
The theme of the story is introduced gradually with several references to wings which are carefully written to make you think about wings and birds.
David Almond has created three very realistic teenage boys who talk and act as all teenagers do.
Mina is a very mysterious girl, but Michael seems to like her more then he lets out.
Michael shows anger towards Skelig but it is obvious that this is just frustration because he wants to save Skelig but Skelig just won't move.
This book is brilliant and I would recommend it to anyone.
