The Last Zeppelin of Billabong

In all of Dusttopia’s Outback, there is no better veterinarian than Orson from the province of Billabonga. Although he is already well advanced in years, he still flies his old zeppelin every day to the most remote farms, mining colonies, and forgotten settlements in the heart of the red desert.But in Dusttopia, it is not enough for a veterinarian with a flying clinic to know only how to treat animals. He must know how to steer his zeppelin through sandstorms, repair it in the middle of the desert without anyone’s help, and evade attacks by the Dust Striders - merciless desert outlaws who plunder anything they can get their hands on: oil, spare parts, and precious opals. For years, Orson managed to overcome every danger - until one day his grandchildren, Mellody and Jett, joined him on a journey. What was meant to be a routine, harmless trip soon turns into an encounter with the most dangerous outlaws in the land, a desperate struggle for survival, and a confrontation with secrets that were never meant to come to light.For Mellody and Jett, this is not merely an ordinary adventure. From the very first day, it becomes the greatest lesson of their lives, filled with a series of trials and outlaws who trade in everything - even human lives. Both of them will discover their limits, their weaknesses, and their strengths. They will learn, sooner than they would like, that life beyond the safety of their own home is as thrilling as it is dangerous. For the red desert of the Outback knows no mercy and never forgives mistakes.This time, simply staying in the air will not be enough. This time, Orson must find a way to bring them all home alive.
