Their small group of humans has been stranded on the planet for 70 years and kept there by an alien race called the Krell. Spensa was able to prove herself as a pilot and as the daughter of a pilot branded a coward by her whole society, small as it is, on a far-flung planet called Detritus. With all those elements, these actually remind me of Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff’s two series, the Illuminae Files and the Aurora Cycle. Brandon Sanderson has crafted an entertaining and adventure-filled set of books, with quirky characters you have to love and clever humor scattered liberally throughout. I am so pleased Rated Reads reviewer Meaghan introduced this series to me with her review of Skyward because I am enjoying it so much. IN SHORT: This clean young adult book is so fun: space, aliens and adventure. ![]()
