Citónica (Escuadrón 3)

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):
“Surprising revelations and momentous consequences... It’s clear Sanderson had a blast with this high-flying, fast-paced first novel, and readers will too.”
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.”
Publishers Weekly

“It’s impossible to turn the pages fast enough.”
Booklist

“Sanderson offers us a cinematic adventure that explores the defining aspects of the individual versus society... It will not disappoint his avid readers.”
SLJ

About Starsight (sequel to Skyward):
“Nobody has more fun writing or describes space fighter combat better... Read the first book for fun or enjoy the second on its own.”

Brandon Sanderson (Lincoln, Nebraska, 1975) es el gran autor de fantasía del siglo XXI, con treinta millones de lectores, y el autor más prolífico del mundo. Desde que debutara en 2006 con su novela Elantris, ha deslumbrado a lectores en treinta lenguas con el Cosmere, el fascinante universo de magia que comparten la mayoría de sus obras. Sanderson es autor de la brillante saga Nacidos de la Bruma (Mistborn), formada por El Imperio Final, El Pozo de la Ascensión, El Héroede las Eras, Aleación de ley, Sombras de identidad y Brazales de Duelo. Tras El aliento de los dioses, una obra de fantasía épica en un único volumen en la línea de Elantris, inició con El camino de los reyes una magna y descomunal decalogía, El Archivo de las Tormentas, que continuó con Palabras radiantes, Juramentada y El Ritmo de la Guerra (además de la novela corta Esquirla del Amanecer). Con la serie Escuadrón (Escuadrón, Estelar, Citónica y Escuadrón Cielo), Sanderson se acerca, también, a los lectores de la ciencia ficción. Con un plan de publicación de más de veinte futuras obras (que contempla la interconexión de todas ellas), el Cosmere se convertirá en el universo más extenso e impresionante jamás escrito en fantasía épica.

Sanderson vive en Utah con su esposa e hijos y enseña escritura creativa en la Universidad Brigham Young. Curso de escritura creativa es el libro que recoge sus valiosos consejos.
