Starsight: The Second Skyward Novel

Product Information

Spensa and the DDF have pushed the Krell war into space; Spensa's cytonic "defect" has been a key advantage in the war. Cobb, now the DDF admiral, is worried that humans will lose unless they manage to steal a Krell hyperdrive, as the Superiority is sending increasing numbers of warships into battle. Rodge and the engineers discover footage showing a creature known as a 'Delver' consuming and destroying the first inhabitants of Detritus - Spensa recognizes it as the eyes that she sees in the Nowhere when using her cytonic powers. I was also honored to be able to complete the final three volumes of The Wheel of Time, beginning with The Gathering Storm, using Robert Jordan’s notes. Spensa · M-Bot · Doomslug · Jorgen · Cobb · Kimmalyn · FM · Rig · Hurl · Nedd · Arturo · Ironsides · Morriumur · Vapor · Hesho · Brade · Cuna · Winzik · Jason Write · Alanik Vapor and Spensa enter the maze and reach a chamber with lots of writing. The writing is the same as some writing on her planet. That scene where Spensa showed Cuna who she really was is SO powerful. I really hope that Cuna survived.

Overall, this was a solid installment of the story. While I may have enjoyed Skyward a little better, I think that this installment was better and really helped build the world. I'm very much looking forward to book three and I'd recommend this book to anyone who read Skyward.Cytonics · Lifebuster · Human Wars · Battle of Alta · Battle of Alta Second · Phone Company · Cytoverse Morriumur and Spensa eat together and talk about the Superiority. No one seems to have known about the delvers.

stars for Brandon Sanderson's latest novel, which is on sale now! Review first posted on Fantasy Literature: Spensa is sure there’s more to the story. And she’s sure that whatever happened to her father in his starship could happen to her. When she made it outside the protective shell of her planet, she heard the stars—and it was terrifying. Everything Spensa has been taught about her world is a lie. I liked Skyward, but I think Starsight is a more unique and engaging novel. Starsight took a sharp turn in a new direction early on, and Sanderson throws in several game-changer developments throughout the novel, keeping both Spensa and the reader on their toes. It wasn’t at all the sequel I expected, and I enjoyed it all the more because of that. Spensa’s horizons and the worldbuilding in this universe both expand exponentially. Starsight is not just a place, it’s also a description of the visions Spensa sees when she’s in the nowhere of hyperspace: stars that are also eyes, focusing their malevolent view on Spensa. Those hate-filled eyes turn out to be significant to both the past and present events. You've lived your whole life with autonomy. For me it's a new, hazardous thing - a weapon I've been handed with no instructions. I might be on my way to becoming something terrible, something I don't understand and cannot anticipate." This theme of self-examination and personal identity is reflected in several different characters, particularly M-Bot, Spensa’s AI companion that drives her spaceship. M-Bot is still funny in that annoying way, but he’s also an artificial intelligence having an existential crisis, which adds an interesting flavor to the story. Even the surprisingly delightful Doomslug turns out to be far important than she first appeared.

There are a few interludes in between chapters, featuring some familiar secondary characters, that begin as fairly simple fleshing out of their characters and the world of Detritus, but end in a significant discovery that will almost certainly play a key role in the next book in the SKYWARD series. Between that and the rather cliffhangerish ending of Starsight, I’m searching for a way to teleport myself into the future and get a copy of the next book in this series now rather than in 2021! Despite this little criticism of mine, I do still rate this book and series very highly because it has gone to some spectacular places. And it is difficult for me to speak here without giving away major spoilers for the series. So, I will keep the plot details as basic as I can. The universe has opened, and Spensa has realised how small her little part of it was. And she has also discovered why her people were contained and who exactly is containing them. The malignant and all-powerful force she has feared her entire life are not what they seem. The Superiority, as they are known, are equal parts comical and genius. Conclusion? Five attributes set media relations (PR) and analyst relations (AR) apart: targets, content, timeframe, salience and focus.In December 2018, Sanderson confirmed in his yearly "State of the Sanderson" that there will be four books set in the Skyward universe; books 3 and 4 are expected to be released in 2021 and 2023, respectively. [5] The third book titled Cytonic [6] released on November 23, 2021 and the fourth currently titled Defiant will release in 2023. Sunreach, ReDawn, [7] and Evershore, audiobook-original novellas co-written with Janci Patterson, will release around the same time. Siento que al final ha sido una muy buena elección realizar esta relectura porque no me acordaba siquiera del 10% del argumento principal. Suelo hacer anotaciones para refrescar mi memoria en este tipo de casos, pero ni siquiera mis anotaciones me hubieran ayudado en esta ocasión. Realmente, fue una gran decisión realizar esta relectura. Cuna reveals that they think the delvers are watching the Superiority, so they need more pilots to defend themselves and the space station.
