One of the joys of reading anything by fantasy and sci-fi author Brandon Sanderson is his ability to craft multidimensional supporting characters. Conversely, if there’s any criticism to be levelled at Skyward, the first of three books in his latest series, it’s that Sanderson has a tendency to have his quirky supporting personalities sound the same across his various titles.
It’s a minor criticism of a superbly crafted chronicle, with mysteries upon mysteries and solid character growth from start to finish. Though technically a young adult novel, Skyward is a real treat for anyone who enjoys a good space story.
