The highly anticipated sequel to Skyward and Starsight, Brandon Sanderson’s epic saga about a girl who flies beyond the stars to save the world she loves from destruction. Spensa’s life as a member of the Defiant Defense Force is anything but normal. She proved to be one of the best starfighter pilots in the human enclave of Detritus and saved her people from extermination at the hands of the Krell, the enigmatic alien species that had held them captive for decades. As if that weren’t enough, she traveled light-years away from her home as an infiltrator spy in the Superiority, to a place where she discovered there was a whole galaxy beyond her small, desolate home planet. Now the Superiority, the galactic government intent on dominating all human life, has unleashed a galaxy-wide war. And Spensa has seen the weapons they intend to use to end it: the Obliterators, ancient and enigmatic alien forces that can wipe out entire star systems in an instant. Spensa knows that, no matter how many pilots the DDF has, there’s no way to defeat this predator. However, Spensa is a Cytonic. She faced an Obliterator and sensed something eerily familiar about it. And perhaps, if she can discover what she herself is, she could be more than just another pilot in the war. She could save the galaxy. But the only way for Spensa to discover her true nature is to leave everything she knows behind and enter the Nowhere, a place from which very few have ever returned. Having courage means facing fear. And this mission is terrifying. About Skyward (best book of the year according to Kirkus Reviews): “In this action-packed first volume, Sanderson introduces an ingenious and intrepid heroine, accompanied by a memorable cast... [and] after the exciting story gains intensity and reveals its secrets, the ending sets up the next installment.” “It’s impossible to turn the pages fast enough.” “Sanderson offers us a cinematic adventure that explores the defining aspects of the individual versus society... It will not disappoint his avid readers.” About Starsight (sequel to Skyward): |
