    <body><![CDATA[Told mostly from the perspective of Art Mumby, an typical eleven year old Victorian era boy who happens to live in outer space in a crazy spaceship-house with robot servants, his absentminded professor father, and his annoyingly fussy older sister Myrtle.  Art and Myrtle just barely escape from a harrowing situation after giant intelligent spiders (with hats) attack their house (Larklight).  After a crash landing on the moon, where they are hijacked by giant moths and then rescued by a dashing and dangerous boy pirate named Jack and his passel of alien sidekicks.  Alchemy, danger and derring-do ensues.  Great, imaginative, rollicking read made all the better by the inventive drawings throughout.  I'm looking forward to reading the sequel.]]></body>
