Description
Defeated, crushed, and driven almost to extinction, the remnants of the human race is trapped on a planet that is constantly attacked by mysterious alien starfighters.
Spensa, a teenage girl living among them, longs to be a pilot. When she discovers the wreckage of an ancient ship, she realizes this dream might be possible - assuming she can repair the ship, navigate flight school, and (perhaps most importantly) persuade the strange machine to help her.
Because this ship, uniquely, appears to have a soul.

Génial j'ai adoré l'histoire autant que la lecture
J'ai adoré ce titre, il se prête tellement à la lecture audio.
Je voulais découvrir cet auteur par ce biais et par un roman plus "léger" avant de rentrer dans ses univers plus complexes, j'ai juste maintenant incroyablement envie de m'y vautrer avec luxure.
L'histoire se situe sur une planète dénommée Detritus (je ne sais pas si c'est autant lisible pour nous ce nom que pour les Anglais) avec une jeune fille, fille de pilote déserteur, qui lutte pour devenir pilote malgré la triste réputation de son père, en partie pour laver cette mauvaise réputation.
Il y a plein de batailles galactiques, ce que je n'aime pas mais là j'ai adoré, c'était les meilleures parties, tellement de tension.
C'est une histoire à tiroirs avec plein de rebondissements, plein de questions (certaines restent en suspens pour le deuxième tome, count on me!), et en prime de l'humour. J'adore la limace (je ne sais pas comment la décrire autrement), elle a un gros potentiel. Je suis impatiente de savoir ce qu'elle devient et M-bot est truculent, je n'en dis pas plus.
La narratrice est excellente, pas d'autre mot, elle sait tellement bien rendre les scènes, monter ou descendre en tension. Je suis très difficile sur mes livres audio et j'abandonne facilement mais là excellente lecture.

Great young adult novel for anyone aged 10 to 110.
Space adventure in which the protagonist, Spensa, has to find and face the truth. Full of originality, brilliantly-written dogfights and interactions between great characters who I'm looking forward to following in book II.

Another Sanderson Gem
I purchased this book on pre-order and started listening immediately upon it's release. I have read most of Brandon Sanderson's work, I find him one of the most compelling story-teller's in the sci-fi/fantasy genre. I was not disappointed with Skyward, it's a page-turner through and through.
Of note is the wholesome nature of this story. It is suitable for young teenagers and above, with a deceptively simple narrative that nonetheless highlights Sanderson's ability to polish a story to its essence. The character-work is front and centre, in true coming-of-age style. However, it is the world-building that occurs during the story that truly captivates and speaks to the compelling series that this first book introduces us to. That said, every word in this book is purposeful, with no wasted time to establish details. Skyward gives the reader an intimate and personal viewpoint from which to grasp the context of a galaxy-spanning story. I look forward to listening again when Skyward 2 is released (Sanderson has apparently already drafted the next in this series).
The audio performance was also well produced. Sophie Aldred voices the protagonist brilliantly and does a solid job with the supporting roles as well. Her narrative delivery manages to draw you in, allowing the listener to feel the emotion of the protaganist whilst sustaining the sense of immersion throughout fast-paced action scenes.

very young adult, stretches credulity at times
the narration is top notch. story concept is brilliant. plot etc are extremely young adult no layers and complexity. serendipity in the story sometimes stretches credulity.
would still recommend for the concept and the narrator.

Entertaining and surprising story
Brandon Sanderson is a long time favorite for me and this story did not disappoint. It felt slightly different from his other works but by no means less entertaining. To me it felt like i was listening to a star wars movie being narrated. And I absolutely loved that. The one thing i disliked about the book is that i wished it would have been longer.

My least favourite Sanderson book, but not bad
The main character is insufferable for about 75% of this book, and Sanderson only starts subverting expectations near the end.
Worth a read if you have nothing else to do, and if you think a great ending is worth a mediocre middle.

Beautiful
I don’t like si-fi that much, more of a Fantasy man myself. However, this is hands down one of the best books I have ever experienced. Please give this a try, it was magnificent.

Really enjoyed this book by the end
I was curious about this book. Then I was intrigued. Then sucked in. Then hating that it was ending! Sanderson is a master of writing unique and gripping stories. Loved it and it's worth a credit!

Book about feelings
In 95% this book is focused on feelings of main character and her social relationships. Only 5% shows fantasy/sci-fi elements (situation, new ideas). One single theme in whole book (branded as coward). Story of "Skyward" could be scripted by Mbot (name of AI in the book) in 5 minutes, not much human creativity was used here. I have read almost all books by Brandon Sanderson and he is the best author. I hope in the next book he will inspire with his brilliant storytelling, amazing ideas and complicated magic systems showed in Mistborn, The Stormlight Archive and The Reckoners books. I should rate "Story" 2/5, but that made me feel like a traitor :p

incredible
narrator was incredible. story draws you in and you can't put it down. I had thought that I had become somewhat apathetic in life, but this story and narration gave me a reason to get up in the morning. it's been years since something was that attention catching.

Better version with Sophie Aldred
Much better version
This series was promoted for "young adults" audience. I think it was more apparent in the other version narrated by Suzy Jackson.
This version, narrated by Sophie Aldred feels slightly more mature. Also M-bot sounds better in this version, for some reason the Irish/Scottish? accent makes its quirky character better stand out.

It's the best audio book ever!
While I never thought I could be interested in what things people learn in flight school, Brandon Sanderson explained Spensa's challenges in such a thrilling way, I couldn't stop listening and always was eager to hear more! Also, I can imagine this is the first book better listened to than read - the invigorating, motivated voices are so fun to listen to, it has been a real joy! The humour of the machine also made me laugh out loud several times. Thank you for all the fun I had with this book. Now I'll be listening to every single one of Sanderson's books!

Another great Book from the Sanderson
The book is closer in style to the Rekkoners than either mistborn or stormlight. Yet he still has his well known charme when exploring a completely new setting.
The idea of the unlikely hero finding a chance to fulfill her dreams is a bit like Eragon, but the similarities end there. No magic this time.
I am looking forward to part two, shouldn't be too long.

Danke lieber Gott
endlich wieder ein gutes und durchgehend spannendes Buch. Ich dachte schon ich wäre nur abgestumpft und deswegen gefallen mir keine Bücher mehr. Aber nein, ich hab in der Vergangenheit einfach überhypten Schrott gelesen und habe in Brandon Sanderson endlich meine Erlösung von schlechten Schriftstellern erhalten.

Amazing book made even greater by awesome narrator
I love this book. And this audio narration is the best version making it even better than the original text!
I've been reading SciFi for decades, but this is by far my favorite. Though it has been written with younger audience in mind, it is such a masterpiece that readers in all ages can fully enjoy. While I am a fan of Brandon Sanderson's work, I admit that the best feature of this audio book is actually the wonderful skillful narration by Sophie Aldred. This is not only the best version of the book, but her masterful voice acting has actually elevated the book. I was even a bit disappointed that the original text didn't feature the amazing accents she created. My particular favorite, and the absolutely best thing about the book, is the voice and accent for the M-Bot character. I hope the narrator gets some recognition for this.

Great story, stellar voice acting
Sophie Aldred is now my favourite voice actress. Just wow.
Thoroughly enjoyed the story as well. Charismatic characters and solid "popcorn" sci-fi.

Fantastic voice actor
I enjoyed the story, as I have enjoyed everything by Brandon Sanderson so far. He is an excellent storyteller and this works well for adults too. The reader/voice actor was absolutely fabulous and definitely added significantly to my enjoyment of the story.

Becoming a bigger fan after every book
I loved it.
Brandon Sandersons work always manages to get deep emotio s out of me. Excitement from the action and heartfelt tears from the tender moments
