From number one best-selling author Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson comes the first of three Skyward series novellas, each told from the perspective of a different member of the team back on Detritus. Listen to FM's story 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 flightleader, Jorgen, has found a large group of Taynix hiding in the caverns far below Detritus’s 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 them - or the Superiority government will be in the sole clutches of those who want to wipe out Detritus once and for all.

Good but too expensive

I think releasing multiple novellas around the release of a main book is a really fun experience and a great way to spread the excitement over months. I look forward to the next novellas and hope this release method continues to be used.
A real pleasure!

It was hard to get behind it because all the standard boy crushing on girl body language signs were there but FM misinterpreting it, especially after emphasizing her witnessing Spensa and Jorgans crush, felt... out of place. Especially the WAY she misinterpreted despite knowing the guy was awkward. It felt very contrived rather than natural.
Outside of this, I found the writing style and voice to be delightful. Janci did a wonderful job taking this character and bringing them to life.
My only continuity nit pick was Kimmalyn who felt as if someone had copied and pasted her past dialog in the book. No new original dialog, only old recycled sayings.
Ned, Jorgan, Ontario. These ones all felt well rounded and real. I also found the battle scenes exceptionally well written. Clear.
All in all, not one of my favorite novellas, but any lover of romance will heavily enjoy the work. Strong writing and a powerful flare for character and adorable slugs. FM feels as if she's been brought to life.
Not really my cup of tea for sci fi but decent
