A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!From Brandon Sanderson, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Reckoners series, Words of Radiance, and the internationally bestselling Mistborn series, comes the first book in an epic new series about a girl who dreams of becoming a pilot in a dangerous world at war for humanity's future.
Spensa's world has been under attack for decades. Now pilots are the heroes of what's left of the human race, and becoming one has always been Spensa's dream. Since she was a little girl, she has imagined soaring skyward and proving her bravery. But her fate is intertwined with her father's--a pilot himself who was killed years ago when he abruptly deserted his team, leaving Spensa's chances of attending flight school at slim to none.
No one will let Spensa forget what her father did, yet fate works in mysterious ways. Flight school might be a long shot, but she is determined to fly. And an accidental discovery in a long-forgotten cavern might just provide her with a way to claim the stars.
Praise for Skyward:
A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year
"Startling revelations and stakes-raising implications...Sanderson plainly had a ball with this nonstop, highflying opener, and readers will too."--Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
"With this action-packed trilogy opener, Sanderson offers up a resourceful, fearless heroine and a memorable cast...[and] as the pulse-pounding story intensifies and reveals its secrets, a cliffhanger ending sets things up for the next installment."--Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"It is impossible to turn the pages fast enough."--Booklist
"Sanderson delivers a cinematic adventure that explores the defining aspects of the individual versus the society...[and] fans of [his] will not be disappointed."--SLJ

To anyone who likes this book, I’d recommend Chris Walley’s books: the Lamb Among The Stars series, and his alias penned books as John Haworth...they are great reads!

Good YA Intro to Hard Sci-fi
A little slow to build and kind of simplistic scientifically, but a strong and continuous book of intrigue and good plot and character development.

Intensity
This book has an intensity that only a very seasoned writer can pull off. It’s not very plot heavy, but the story is full of anxiety and emotion. Loved it.

The “Sanderson Avalanche” is in full effect.
Brandon Sanderson is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. It’s no secret that I love the Stormlight Archive series, and I often wonder why it took me so long to dive into his epic library (I know why: his books are massive). But Skyward has left me with one desire, other than a sequel: for Sanderson to venture more into science fiction. Seriously, can you imagine if Brandon Sanderson were to write an epic space opera? OF COURSE YOU CAN’T! The potential greatness is too much for the human brain to comprehend. Sorry, I’m getting off topic. Skyward. The setup and progression of the story are perfect. You’re constantly being introduced to something new and interesting. Whether it be a new character, a new part of the world, or a new event, it’s done at such a great pace that you’re not being overwhelmed with information, and it’s easy to keep track of all the who’s, what’s and where’s. And when you are introduced to these new things, he’s not just pulling them out of thin air and saying, “oh hey, by the way, this is a thing.” They’re either alluded to early on and are finally coming into play, or it’s a natural progression of the world and it’s characters. On top of that, it’s progression that you actually see. I know I’m not the only one who doesn’t like Mary Sue characters, and Spin is far from this. From training at the academy, to trying to repair her own ship, and how she relates to her other flight members, you see her character develop as she struggles to achieve her dream. And by the end, she’s almost a completely different person. I will note that by the end of Skyward, there are a few unanswered questions, but at the same time, this is a series. And given Sanderson’s talent and reputation, I have no doubt these questions will be answered in time.

Has DRM
I just bought this book really looking forward to “reading" it because I am a huge Sanderson fan. However I don't actually read my books. I convert them into my own version of an audio book so that I can listen to them while at work or doing other activities. This e-book has DRM which prevents this. I have absolutely no doubt that this book will be as fantastic as others he has written. So five stars for that ***** I'm just sad because now this e-book is basically a waste of $10 for me.

An excellent read!
Definitely a fun read from an author that I simply adore. This new series is a bit of a departure from the fantasy genre into science fiction, but Sanderson pulls it off with style and skill. I am looking forward to the next book in this series!

LOVED IT...Absolutely GREAT read from Brandon Sanderson!!! I could not stop reading. Every time I would quit reading, I would catch myself daydreaming about where the storyline was going to go. Inevitably, this lead to me picking it back up again and continuing to read. I can’t wait until its sequel is published this fall. Skyward gets five stars from me!!!👍🏻

I started reading your books once you took over the Wheel of Time series. Since then you have never disappointed. I am your fan now. Reckoned, Oathbringer, Steelheart are all great. Ricci Retired and fan for life.

AMAZING!!!!!! LOVE IT BEST BOOK I’VE EVER READ!!!

I love to read, I could read a book a day , or in a few hours. Given if it’s a book I just can’t put down. However, I’m an extremely picky reader. So I spend a lot of time “looking” for books to read. Reading reviews, and genre info. I was skeptical about this book, and at the same time it called to me. I could not put this book down! Normally I need a romance element to a store, for me to properly enjoy it. But this wasn’t the case. The author captivated me within the first few chapters. The underdog storyline was so relatable, and the “Star Wars” kind of detail was incredibly intriguing. Brandon Sanderson weaves an incredible story narrative and shows amazing detail into the stories background. There seems to be some “questionable “ romance, in the sense that Spensa or “Spin” finds romance to not be really a factor in her life. But also that she’s a girl, and theres definitely some potential there for more. She is a strong female lead, who struggles with her independence, and proving to herself and her peers who she really is. Brandon is able to explain in just the right amount of detail a description of piloting . that makes you feel like you would know how to fly if you’d gotten behind the “wheel” of a poco ship! I was excited, angry, scared! He had me laughing , crying, and shaking! I got goosebumps on more than one chapter, and I can not wait for another book! All in all I totally give this novel a 5-5 stars . Underdog Female first person Syfy Sorry if my review was a little scatterbrained... it’s 2 am and I have a newborn! ❤️

Brandon Sanderson never ceases to amaze
I’ve just picked up this book two days ago and like many of Sanderson’s works I’ve finished it within a few days of starting. The book is incredible as always and it’s filled with wittiness that will make you laugh along with storylines that can make you emotional enough to step away for a moment. It takes you through the wonderful journey Spensa goes through as she tries to become a pilot and it means a lot to me especially as someone who wants to pursue flight in the Air Force in the future. The book is inspiring and wonderful and I’d encourage anyone even remotely interested in either flight, fantasy, Sci-Fi or Brandon Sanderson to pick it up, read it and thoroughly enjoy it.

Excellent read! Had a blast with the characters, and was thoroughly impressed, once again, by Sanderson. The writing is engaging from the beginning with a wonderful plot and an eclectic assortment of characters who complement each other in wonderful ways. A read for any who love an exciting fly.

What a great book
This book is amazing for many different reasons. One is the authors willingness to be real. What I mean by this is that the author is willing to kill off characters and give the harsh reality of things. Spensa is a artfully developed character with blatant insecurities and unhealthy coping mechanisms. Yet through all the gloom, there’s still hope. Amazing.
Kramspark
Sanderson has done it again!
Man, this is a great read! I could not put this book down. I wish the second book was finished as well. This book sucked me into spin’s world just like Mistborn did. I love Brandon’s magic systems he builds, but this is a refreshing change! Keep them coming Brandon and I will keep reading!
한국이 좋다
Well, it was worth it.
My college grades plummeted due to this book, but it was far better than expected. I expected it to be really good. If you don’t read this, your going to spend your money on some other book which I can promise isn’t as good. Don’t believe me? Try it out. I challenge you- no regrets.
Jim bush
Not again!
I am currently in the middle of every single series of books Sanderson is currently working on and once again he leaves me hoping for the next one. Skyward is a wonderful book which seamlessly puts you into a familiar story with true Sanderson twists. It’s a novel you feel you know but he doesn’t disappoint throwing you curves that put a smile on your face and makes you fall in love with a story about a outcast of a girl, and quirky spaceship and a slug..... need I say more.

Excellent Variation
This story is a well-formed tale that expands upon the author’s already wide range of plot mechanisms and genres. The main character is dynamic and balanced equally with flaws and strengths. I read it all in half a day because I couldn’t put it down. Always I look forward to more works by Brandon, whatever the genre, whatever the plot. I absolutely recommend this read.

Awesome! Sanderson does it again!
This story is a blast! Reminds me of a post apocalyptic Enders Game but with the fun of Harry Potter.

Excellent read! Had a blast with the characters, and was thoroughly impressed, once again, by Sanderson. The writing is engaging from the beginning with a wonderful plot and an eclectic assortment of characters who complement each other in wonderful ways. A read for any who love an exciting fly.

What a great book
This book is amazing for many different reasons. One is the authors willingness to be real. What I mean by this is that the author is willing to kill off characters and give the harsh reality of things. Spensa is a artfully developed character with blatant insecurities and unhealthy coping mechanisms. Yet through all the gloom, there’s still hope. Amazing.

Sanderson has done it again!
Man, this is a great read! I could not put this book down. I wish the second book was finished as well. This book sucked me into spin’s world just like Mistborn did. I love Brandon’s magic systems he builds, but this is a refreshing change! Keep them coming Brandon and I will keep reading!

Well, it was worth it.
My college grades plummeted due to this book, but it was far better than expected. I expected it to be really good. If you don’t read this, your going to spend your money on some other book which I can promise isn’t as good. Don’t believe me? Try it out. I challenge you- no regrets.

Not again!
I am currently in the middle of every single series of books Sanderson is currently working on and once again he leaves me hoping for the next one. Skyward is a wonderful book which seamlessly puts you into a familiar story with true Sanderson twists. It’s a novel you feel you know but he doesn’t disappoint throwing you curves that put a smile on your face and makes you fall in love with a story about a outcast of a girl, and quirky spaceship and a slug..... need I say more.

Excellent Variation
This story is a well-formed tale that expands upon the author’s already wide range of plot mechanisms and genres. The main character is dynamic and balanced equally with flaws and strengths. I read it all in half a day because I couldn’t put it down. Always I look forward to more works by Brandon, whatever the genre, whatever the plot. I absolutely recommend this read.

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!From Brandon Sanderson, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Reckoners series, Words of Radiance, and the internationally bestselling Mistborn series, comes the first book in an epic new series about a girl who dreams of becoming a pilot in a dangerous world at war for humanity's future.
Spensa's world has been under attack for decades. Now pilots are the heroes of what's left of the human race, and becoming one has always been Spensa's dream. Since she was a little girl, she has imagined soaring skyward and proving her bravery. But her fate is intertwined with her father's--a pilot himself who was killed years ago when he abruptly deserted his team, leaving Spensa's chances of attending flight school at slim to none.
No one will let Spensa forget what her father did, yet fate works in mysterious ways. Flight school might be a long shot, but she is determined to fly. And an accidental discovery in a long-forgotten cavern might just provide her with a way to claim the stars.
Praise for Skyward:

"It is impossible to turn the pages fast enough."--Booklist

The “Sanderson Avalanche” is in full effect.
Brandon Sanderson is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. It’s no secret that I love the Stormlight Archive series, and I often wonder why it took me so long to dive into his epic library (I know why: his books are massive). But Skyward has left me with one desire, other than a sequel: for Sanderson to venture more into science fiction. Seriously, can you imagine if Brandon Sanderson were to write an epic space opera? OF COURSE YOU CAN’T! The potential greatness is too much for the human brain to comprehend. Sorry, I’m getting off topic. Skyward. The setup and progression of the story are perfect. You’re constantly being introduced to something new and interesting. Whether it be a new character, a new part of the world, or a new event, it’s done at such a great pace that you’re not being overwhelmed with information, and it’s easy to keep track of all the who’s, what’s and where’s. And when you are introduced to these new things, he’s not just pulling them out of thin air and saying, “oh hey, by the way, this is a thing.” They’re either alluded to early on and are finally coming into play, or it’s a natural progression of the world and it’s characters. On top of that, it’s progression that you actually see. I know I’m not the only one who doesn’t like Mary Sue characters, and Spin is far from this. From training at the academy, to trying to repair her own ship, and how she relates to her other flight members, you see her character develop as she struggles to achieve her dream. And by the end, she’s almost a completely different person. I will note that by the end of Skyward, there are a few unanswered questions, but at the same time, this is a series. And given Sanderson’s talent and reputation, I have no doubt these questions will be answered in time.

Has DRM
I just bought this book really looking forward to “reading" it because I am a huge Sanderson fan. However I don't actually read my books. I convert them into my own version of an audio book so that I can listen to them while at work or doing other activities. This e-book has DRM which prevents this. I have absolutely no doubt that this book will be as fantastic as others he has written. So five stars for that ***** I'm just sad because now this e-book is basically a waste of $10 for me.

An excellent read!
Definitely a fun read from an author that I simply adore. This new series is a bit of a departure from the fantasy genre into science fiction, but Sanderson pulls it off with style and skill. I am looking forward to the next book in this series!

LOVED IT...Absolutely GREAT read from Brandon Sanderson!!! I could not stop reading. Every time I would quit reading, I would catch myself daydreaming about where the storyline was going to go. Inevitably, this lead to me picking it back up again and continuing to read. I can’t wait until its sequel is published this fall. Skyward gets five stars from me!!!👍🏻

I love to read, I could read a book a day , or in a few hours. Given if it’s a book I just can’t put down. However, I’m an extremely picky reader. So I spend a lot of time “looking” for books to read. Reading reviews, and genre info. I was skeptical about this book, and at the same time it called to me. I could not put this book down! Normally I need a romance element to a store, for me to properly enjoy it. But this wasn’t the case. The author captivated me within the first few chapters. The underdog storyline was so relatable, and the “Star Wars” kind of detail was incredibly intriguing. Brandon Sanderson weaves an incredible story narrative and shows amazing detail into the stories background. There seems to be some “questionable “ romance, in the sense that Spensa or “Spin” finds romance to not be really a factor in her life. But also that she’s a girl, and theres definitely some potential there for more. She is a strong female lead, who struggles with her independence, and proving to herself and her peers who she really is. Brandon is able to explain in just the right amount of detail a description of piloting . that makes you feel like you would know how to fly if you’d gotten behind the “wheel” of a poco ship! I was excited, angry, scared! He had me laughing , crying, and shaking! I got goosebumps on more than one chapter, and I can not wait for another book! All in all I totally give this novel a 5-5 stars . Underdog Female first person Syfy Sorry if my review was a little scatterbrained... it’s 2 am and I have a newborn! ❤️

Brandon Sanderson never ceases to amaze
I’ve just picked up this book two days ago and like many of Sanderson’s works I’ve finished it within a few days of starting. The book is incredible as always and it’s filled with wittiness that will make you laugh along with storylines that can make you emotional enough to step away for a moment. It takes you through the wonderful journey Spensa goes through as she tries to become a pilot and it means a lot to me especially as someone who wants to pursue flight in the Air Force in the future. The book is inspiring and wonderful and I’d encourage anyone even remotely interested in either flight, fantasy, Sci-Fi or Brandon Sanderson to pick it up, read it and thoroughly enjoy it.

I love to read, I could read a book a day , or in a few hours. Given if it’s a book I just can’t put down. However, I’m an extremely picky reader. So I spend a lot of time “looking” for books to read. Reading reviews, and genre info. I was skeptical about this book, and at the same time it called to me. I could not put this book down! Normally I need a romance element to a store, for me to properly enjoy it. But this wasn’t the case. The author captivated me within the first few chapters. The underdog storyline was so relatable, and the “Star Wars” kind of detail was incredibly intriguing. Brandon Sanderson weaves an incredible story narrative and shows amazing detail into the stories background. There seems to be some “questionable “ romance, in the sense that Spensa or “Spin” finds romance to not be really a factor in her life. But also that she’s a girl, and theres definitely some potential there for more. She is a strong female lead, who struggles with her independence, and proving to herself and her peers who she really is. Brandon is able to explain in just the right amount of detail a description of piloting . that makes you feel like you would know how to fly if you’d gotten behind the “wheel” of a poco ship! I was excited, angry, scared! He had me laughing , crying, and shaking! I got goosebumps on more than one chapter, and I can not wait for another book! All in all I totally give this novel a 5-5 stars . Underdog Female first person Syfy Sorry if my review was a little scatterbrained... it’s 2 am and I have a newborn! ❤️

Brandon Sanderson never ceases to amaze
I’ve just picked up this book two days ago and like many of Sanderson’s works I’ve finished it within a few days of starting. The book is incredible as always and it’s filled with wittiness that will make you laugh along with storylines that can make you emotional enough to step away for a moment. It takes you through the wonderful journey Spensa goes through as she tries to become a pilot and it means a lot to me especially as someone who wants to pursue flight in the Air Force in the future. The book is inspiring and wonderful and I’d encourage anyone even remotely interested in either flight, fantasy, Sci-Fi or Brandon Sanderson to pick it up, read it and thoroughly enjoy it.

Impressed again!
Excellent read! Had a blast with the characters, and was thoroughly impressed, once again, by Sanderson. The writing is engaging from the beginning with a wonderful plot and an eclectic assortment of characters who complement each other in wonderful ways. A read for any who love an exciting fly.

What a great book
This book is amazing for many different reasons. One is the authors willingness to be real. What I mean by this is that the author is willing to kill off characters and give the harsh reality of things. Spensa is a artfully developed character with blatant insecurities and unhealthy coping mechanisms. Yet through all the gloom, there’s still hope. Amazing.

Sanderson has done it again!
Man, this is a great read! I could not put this book down. I wish the second book was finished as well. This book sucked me into spin’s world just like Mistborn did. I love Brandon’s magic systems he builds, but this is a refreshing change! Keep them coming Brandon and I will keep reading!

Well, it was worth it.
My college grades plummeted due to this book, but it was far better than expected. I expected it to be really good. If you don’t read this, your going to spend your money on some other book which I can promise isn’t as good. Don’t believe me? Try it out. I challenge you- no regrets.

Not again!
I am currently in the middle of every single series of books Sanderson is currently working on and once again he leaves me hoping for the next one. Skyward is a wonderful book which seamlessly puts you into a familiar story with true Sanderson twists. It’s a novel you feel you know but he doesn’t disappoint throwing you curves that put a smile on your face and makes you fall in love with a story about a outcast of a girl, and quirky spaceship and a slug..... need I say more.

Excellent Variation
This story is a well-formed tale that expands upon the author’s already wide range of plot mechanisms and genres. The main character is dynamic and balanced equally with flaws and strengths. I read it all in half a day because I couldn’t put it down. Always I look forward to more works by Brandon, whatever the genre, whatever the plot. I absolutely recommend this read.

Awesome! Sanderson does it again!
This story is a blast! Reminds me of a post apocalyptic Enders Game but with the fun of Harry Potter.

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!From Brandon Sanderson, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Reckoners series, Words of Radiance, and the internationally bestselling Mistborn series, comes the first book in an epic new series about a girl who dreams of becoming a pilot in a dangerous world at war for humanity's future.
Spensa's world has been under attack for decades. Now pilots are the heroes of what's left of the human race, and becoming one has always been Spensa's dream. Since she was a little girl, she has imagined soaring skyward and proving her bravery. But her fate is intertwined with her father's--a pilot himself who was killed years ago when he abruptly deserted his team, leaving Spensa's chances of attending flight school at slim to none.
No one will let Spensa forget what her father did, yet fate works in mysterious ways. Flight school might be a long shot, but she is determined to fly. And an accidental discovery in a long-forgotten cavern might just provide her with a way to claim the stars.
Praise for Skyward:
A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year
"Startling revelations and stakes-raising implications...Sanderson plainly had a ball with this nonstop, highflying opener, and readers will too."--Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
"With this action-packed trilogy opener, Sanderson offers up a resourceful, fearless heroine and a memorable cast...[and] as the pulse-pounding story intensifies and reveals its secrets, a cliffhanger ending sets things up for the next installment."--Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"It is impossible to turn the pages fast enough."--Booklist
"Sanderson delivers a cinematic adventure that explores the defining aspects of the individual versus the society...[and] fans of [his] will not be disappointed."--SLJ
Praise for Brandon Sanderson's Reckoners series:

"Another win for Sanderson . . . he's simply a brilliant writer. Period."--Patrick Rothfuss, author of the New York Times and USA Today bestseller The Name of the Wind
"Action-packed."--EW

Great Start to a Series

Check these out
To anyone who likes this book, I’d recommend Chris Walley’s books: the Lamb Among The Stars series, and his alias penned books as John Haworth...they are great reads!

Good YA Intro to Hard Sci-fi
A little slow to build and kind of simplistic scientifically, but a strong and continuous book of intrigue and good plot and character development.

One of my Favorites
As a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson, I was expecting a lot from this book, and I got 100 times better than what I was expecting. Pleeeaaassseee read this because you’ll be so entertained. I promise!

Intensity
This book has an intensity that only a very seasoned writer can pull off. It’s not very plot heavy, but the story is full of anxiety and emotion. Loved it.

This book is amazing.
This book is amazing. It may be Brandon Sanderson’s best work yet. Buy it. Thank you for attending my Ted Talk.

The “Sanderson Avalanche” is in full effect.
Brandon Sanderson is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. It’s no secret that I love the Stormlight Archive series, and I often wonder why it took me so long to dive into his epic library (I know why: his books are massive). But Skyward has left me with one desire, other than a sequel: for Sanderson to venture more into science fiction. Seriously, can you imagine if Brandon Sanderson were to write an epic space opera? OF COURSE YOU CAN’T! The potential greatness is too much for the human brain to comprehend. Sorry, I’m getting off topic. Skyward. The setup and progression of the story are perfect. You’re constantly being introduced to something new and interesting. Whether it be a new character, a new part of the world, or a new event, it’s done at such a great pace that you’re not being overwhelmed with information, and it’s easy to keep track of all the who’s, what’s and where’s. And when you are introduced to these new things, he’s not just pulling them out of thin air and saying, “oh hey, by the way, this is a thing.” They’re either alluded to early on and are finally coming into play, or it’s a natural progression of the world and it’s characters. On top of that, it’s progression that you actually see. I know I’m not the only one who doesn’t like Mary Sue characters, and Spin is far from this. From training at the academy, to trying to repair her own ship, and how she relates to her other flight members, you see her character develop as she struggles to achieve her dream. And by the end, she’s almost a completely different person. I will note that by the end of Skyward, there are a few unanswered questions, but at the same time, this is a series. And given Sanderson’s talent and reputation, I have no doubt these questions will be answered in time.

Has DRM
I just bought this book really looking forward to “reading" it because I am a huge Sanderson fan. However I don't actually read my books. I convert them into my own version of an audio book so that I can listen to them while at work or doing other activities. This e-book has DRM which prevents this. I have absolutely no doubt that this book will be as fantastic as others he has written. So five stars for that ***** I'm just sad because now this e-book is basically a waste of $10 for me.

An excellent read!
Definitely a fun read from an author that I simply adore. This new series is a bit of a departure from the fantasy genre into science fiction, but Sanderson pulls it off with style and skill. I am looking forward to the next book in this series!

Skyward Review
LOVED IT...Absolutely GREAT read from Brandon Sanderson!!! I could not stop reading. Every time I would quit reading, I would catch myself daydreaming about where the storyline was going to go. Inevitably, this lead to me picking it back up again and continuing to read. I can’t wait until its sequel is published this fall. Skyward gets five stars from me!!!👍🏻

Great again
I started reading your books once you took over the Wheel of Time series. Since then you have never disappointed. I am your fan now. Reckoned, Oathbringer, Steelheart are all great. Ricci Retired and fan for life.

Classic Sanderdon
If you like Sanderson ( and you should ), you will love this book. Top gun meets TIE fighters meets Ender's Game. Great read.
