The book was mostly written in Spensa’s POV but we also get a few chapters that gives us a glimpse on what’s really happening in the Detritus while spensa is on the other side of the galaxy spying on krell. The author’s writing was vivid and descriptive. There are so many reveals and the part about Doomslug really surprised me. The action and adventure was perfectly executed though. The plot was interesting, but it was a little slower than the first book. I’m very curious about the real Alanik and would love to know more about her. I hated Brade! She’s my least favorite character in this book. Sadly, the old skyward team didn’t get much page time in this book. I also liked Morriumur and the invisible member named Vapor. He’s a kitsen who looked like a tiny little fox. The bond between them was one of my favorite parts in this series. I always enjoy her interaction with M-Bot and Doomslug. The fate of humankind now rests on her shoulders and failing this mission means the end of them.

In order to steal their technology, Spensa uses her cytonic ability to infiltrate into the Krell society. To fight against them, their only hope is the Hyperdrive technology which is only limited to Krell. While searching for answers, Spensa discovers some shocking secrets about herself and the krell’s next major plan. Spensa has finally succeeded in becoming the pilot and she learns that her father did deserted his team and turned against them. Nonetheless, this was still a total entertainer.

The only downside was that we didn’t get more of the skyward flight team in this book. We meet a new set of characters and I liked all of them especially morriumur.

Starsight was an exciting sequel to Skyward.

Spensa is sure there’s more to the story. Worse, though, he turned against his team and attacked them. The rumors of his cowardice are true–he deserted his flight during battle against the Krell. She made it to the sky, but the truths she learned about her father were crushing. GENRE: Young-Adult, Sci-Fi Fantasy, Aliens, Adventure.Īll her life, Spensa has dreamed of becoming a pilot.
