About this listen

From number one best-selling author Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson comes the first of three Skyward series novellas, set between Starsight and Cytonic.

When a planet-destroying Delver suddenly appears in the sky of Detritus and vanishes just as suddenly, FM knows that the last free human society got lucky. Her Skyward Flight companion Spensa figured out how to draw this Delver away, but it won't be so easy next time.

The forces of the Galactic Superiority will be back - and if the Defiant Defense Force can't figure out a way to escape the planet, humanity's destruction is only a matter of time. Spensa's mission to infiltrate the Superiority unveiled the secret to their hyperdrives - a cytonic slug species called the Taynix. Now FM's flight leader Jorgen has found a large group of Taynix hiding in the caverns far below Detritus' surface.

FM and Jorgen must work together with the engineer, Rig, to awaken the mysterious alien Alanik and unlock the powers of the Taynix, or humanity will be trapped. With Spensa's friend, Minister Cuna of the Superiority, stranded at the outpost of Sunreach, they need to figure out how to rescue her - before her foes in the Superiority government can prepare a new weapon to wipe out Detritus once and for all.

Liked everything about it

great balance between action and romance. I really like the way these books are built up with all the mysteries and questions and answers and revelations along the story. this one is no exception. i prefer a british narrator, but for American, it is not bad. i would happily listen to more of these. ps I really like the slugs

A new dimension to the Skyward saga

Honestly I prefer these books to the main story and that is saying something because the main story is awesome. This book is written through the eyes of FM, building on the main storys ark but this focuses more on the other members of the flight rather than just Spins story. The characters are well rounded and loveable the romance side of the story is well written and easy to want the characters to succeed in their efforts.

After these 3 books which I also bought in hardback (single book for all three) I then went and found more books by Janci Patterson to read as I really like her style.

Great addition to the Skyward series

Really like hearing the perspectives of the other members of skyward flight, and the story is exciting. It is a shame they changed the reader from the original series as this lady’s inability to pronounce Jorgen properly is intensely frustrating and sadly distracts from the story/enjoyment in the beginning!

A must-read (or listen) after Starsight

I couldn’t tell the difference in writing style between this novella and Skyward/Starsight. This is top quality stuff, like everything that comes out of Sanderson’s pen, and I couldn’t tell it was co-written by someone else. I think this is a must-read before moving on to Redawn and eventually Cytonic.

more plz

it was a ride to see things from another characters perspective. FM was very fun to follow and to get to know better. She's very different from spensa wich was a nice change of pace.

Good fun!

Not the strongest entry in the series, but that's understandable with it being a novella interlude to the main books. I've come to this out of order, after Cytonic, and still enjoyed seeing what was going on with the other characters during Spensa's adventures.

It's got action, teen romance, and peril. As a collaboration, it still feels like Brandon's universe 🌌

Fast Paced Space Opera

This book hits the road running, fast paced, it flows through the story arc, not hesitating to intertwine with Brandons main story line it is excellent read (listen) and I found myself listening to the whole book in almost a single sitting, I look forward to more stories in this arc.
I recommend this for anyone.

Great addition to the series

While the target audience seems to be young adult Sanderson is a fantastic author as is Patterson and I thoroughly enjoyed the story as I have the rest of the Skyward series.
