Yes! I am so waiting for the day Emily Rodda will announce a sequel! Though it might be in vain since we have no clue if she'll ever write a sequel... :/

The end of The Hungry Isle was a huge let-down for me, but I won't go into that (but I will say that I'm among the few who didn't like the big reveals). I agree that there were too many loose ends left unresolved. Jantsy/Britta/Sky wasn't resolved properly, nor was the issue of the thousands of PTSD-stricken Deltorans. The seeds were also laid for another sea voyage when Mab talked about taking Jewel and Sky aboard the Star with her and Britta when it next sets sail. And there's also Sky's unresolved inner turmoil which was caused by what happened on the Isle of Tier. I'd really like to see where Rodda might go with Sky's character development and his relationship with Britta.

About the steam boat...well, there is a steampunk island in the Silver Sea. :D The Isle of the Zebak. Their technology is advanced enough that I can imagine that the steam boat might belong to them.
