Starsight
Spensa goes undercover among the very aliens who have been bombing her people, and finds the enemy is not what she was told.
The second Skyward novel sends Spensa undercover among the Krell, the aliens who have spent generations bombing her people. Living inside the enemy’s own society, she discovers a galaxy that is neither as united nor as monstrous as she was raised to believe, and a bureaucracy managing the war for reasons of its own. Sanderson widens the series from a single besieged planet to interstellar politics, and makes his hero’s certainty the first casualty.
