From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson comes the final book in an epic series about a girl who will travel beyond the stars to save the world she loves from destruction.

Spensa made it out of the Nowhere, but what she saw in the space between the stars has changed her forever. She came face to face with the Delvers, and finally got answers to the questions she's had about her own strange Cytonic gifts.

The Superiority didn't stop in it's fight for galactic dominance while she was gone, though. Spensa's team, Skyward Flight, was able to hold Winzik off, and even collect allies to help with the cause, but it's only a matter of time until humanity - and the rest of the galaxy - falls.

Defeating them will require all the knowledge Spensa gathered while in the Nowhere. But being Cytonic is more complicated than she ever could have imagined. Now, Spensa must ask herself: how far is she willing to go for victory, if it means losing herself - and her friends - in the process.

The final book in the Skyward series will free humanity, or see it fall forever.©2023 Brandon Sanderson (P)2023 Orion Publishing Group Limited Adventure Science Fiction Space Opera Fiction Interstellar

the overall plot is as you expect of a finishing novel to a young adult sci-fi series. while it is greatly narrated I think the plot and character development leaves a lot to be desired it is predictable and one-sided

Great narration, but the character development is one sided

The last sequence of events the author loads so many Checov’s guns that it might as well be Checov’s Arsenal and in the last chapter each gun fires in interesting ways. A great way to end the series.

Also the VA did a great job, all the main characters were easy to identify from the voice alone.

Motherload of pay-offs after all the previous set up

Everything was wrapped up perfectly - like a good story ending, there is an opening for more, but not too far open to make it feel open-ended

I loved the interactions, the thought behind every character and the humanization of good and bad characters.

The story is unique and touching, I’m eager to listen more - and would definitely recommend-listen to it all.

Thank you for an amazing series!

P.S.
I love Sophie’s narration and love to listen to the main series with her voice.
For me it’s part of the perfection of this series.

Grande finale for an amazing series

Anyone who has followed Spensa and MBot on their adventures will love the thrills, shocks and survival of our amazing cast of characters.

A thrilling finish!

As always I liked the overall story and characters with a good ending to the series. A bit too much of internal turmoil, but in line with growth of the characters.

Maturing of the characters.

I couldnt complete the book, and wasted another credit to hear someone else performing the book.
too many characters became scotish accented, and they all sound the same.

worst naration I ever experienced
