Blythe's first test flight in Clearfleet's new hyperprax plane doesn't go as she planned. Dogged by a strange illness, she arrives at Sky 1 disoriented and off her guard before meeting an old friend who has a secret she is totally unprepared to hear. From there, out of desperatation to unravel the truth from the lies, Blythe makes a dangerous journey to the Northwest Frontier Province of Pakistan where she’s drawn into a holy war with a bizarre twist. If she wants to learn Zayn's final secret, she will have to survive the conflict. Blythe's prescription drug dependency catches up with her as she fights for her life in Pakistan and her mysterious contact reveals the story behind Zayn's missing years. But will the info be too little, too late? When she arrives in Amsterdam in critical condition, it's up to Amelia to help save her. Determined to find Zayn and force him to man up, Amelia criss-crosses the globe – and the memories of her past.
Blythe is learning to control the airplanes and is helped along by her mentor, Amelia Earhart. Blythe is also headed towards the ground, tailspinning in the emotional and physical confusion of her life. She will need to confront her past, her missing lover and the the strange world she lives in, if there is any hope for making it through this incredible journey in one piece.When I read the first Air graphic novel, I loved it. I liked the element of mystery, weirdness and light heartedness in the first one. The second one lacked some of the mystery that was present in the first one. This one did a little better but still didn't live up the first one. In fact, as a graphic novel as a whole, I would say that it is good but not great.Much of the details within the novels isn't given and instead is left for the reader to puzzle out. Everytime I read one, I am left with questions or fuzziness about something. I didn't mind the questions after reading the first one but now I would like answers. Yes, answers are coming but the characters aren't really developing. Blythe is doing what she must do but that isn't really making her a stronger character. I guess that isn't fair really. She is growing and she grew a great deal more in this one then she did in the previous one but I was still left with question. I want to know that if Zayn disappears if things will only deteriorate again. She seems to start coping with things when is his around or at least some part of the picture and the moment he is out, she can't deal. The adventure is still there though which is what saves this graphic novel for me as some of Blythe's problems were just bothering me.So, while I enjoyed Air: Pureland, I didn't find it amazing. It gets 3.75 stars.
