THIS WAS AMAZING. I loved the characters, the world, the humor, the action. I'm excited to continue the series.

Skyward comes out in mass market paperback today! ARC provided by the publisher, Gollancz, in exchange for an honest review..4.5 stars.Skyward is a fine example of a Young Adult novel. Once again, I'm in awe of Sanderson who shows he is still at the top of his game. This novel is another hallmark of Sanderson's ability to spin the most incredible stories. He described the book as How to Train Your Dragon meets Top Gun and Enders Game. These references, however, would count for nothing if the e...

"Just for that, I shall hunt your firstborn and laugh with glee as I tell them of your death in terrible detail, with many unpleasant adjectives!”You know how sometimes you realize you’ve read 500 pages and it was all fluff, nothing really stands out and you can't even remember most of it? Well this book was the opposite.So much happens, the characters are flawed but their growth is fascinating to watch. The story is complex and becomes more interesting as it progresses. Every time I thought I k...
What a ride! It took me a little while to get into this, but once I did I couldn't put it down.Full review to come!
Good news to the die-hard Mistborn fans like me and also The Stormlight Archive lovers (Seriously, I should stop procrastinating and start reading ASAP! It waits too long at my TBR purgatory!), we got the brand new, unique, exciting sci-fi series we’d dreamt of for so long. I honestly waited for second book’s release to start this journey and it finally came out. The book started a little slow and it gave me idea that was long prologue before taking our first steps into journey and warms us befo...
Okay, it's official, folks. Brandon Sanderson is a god.He's not just a go-to guy for all things fantasy. I've read a few of his Cosmere SF stores but this is the first outright SF novel I've read from him and OMG he slams it out of the park. Or sky. :)Let's put it this way. You remember how Armada should have been the glorious Last Starfighter? Let's just ignore that for a moment.THIS is the quintessential Top Gun meets the Last Starfighter, complete with a girl pilot with a huge chip on her sho...
unpopular opinion, but this story sadly didnt feel like sanderson to me. and that could be for a variety of reasons:- ive only read two other books by him, so i might not know him as an author yet. - this is my first time reading a YA/sci-fi book of his, so maybe im just not used to it. - this story feels like plenty of other books i have read before, some of which do this type of story better. and i think its the last point that is really bothering me. even with my limited experience with sande...
