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.

An excellent climax to the series which sees a lot of character growth for all the characters and really makes me want to see more of this universe. I must say that my main take away from this book was that I was really glad that I'd read the novellas. Those novellas are presented as optional but there are so many offhand references, developments in the universe and jumps in character experience that I really can't imagine reading this without first having read those stories (which are great anyway imho).
Strong-ish finish to the Skyward series. I wasn't a huge fan the direction a lot of this book went with the resolution of everything and it felt more boring than the other books I read in this series, but still overall enjoyed.
What an ending! Brandon has really outdone himself on this one.
I never know what to say about Sanderson books anymore. It was good as always. I enjoyed the characters and the story, and loved the universe. It's just all good.
