From number one best-selling author Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson comes the final of three Skyward series novellas, each told from the perspective of a different member of the team back on Detritus. Listen to Jorgen's story along with Cytonic.

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.

Un hombre despierta en el claro de un bosque de lo que parece ser la Inglaterra medieval, sin ningún recuerdo sobre quién es, de dónde procede ni por qué está allí. Perseguido por un grupo llegado de su propia época, su única posibilidad de sobrevivir pasa por recuperar la memoria perdida, conseguir aliados entre la gente del lugar y quizás incluso confiaren sus supersticiosos alardes. Su única ayuda del «mundo real» debería haber sido un manual titulado La guía del mago frugal para sobrevivir en la Inglaterra del Medievo, pero el ejemplar que tenía explotó en el traslado.

La Roue du Temps tourne et les Âges naissent et meurent, laissant dans leur sillage des souvenirs destinés à devenir des légendes. Avant l'Ultime Bataille, Rand lutte encore pour unifier des royaumes séparés par d'anciennes querelles, tout en s'efforçant de négocier une trêve avec les Seanchaniens. Autour de lui, ses plus fidèles alliés s'inquiètent. S'il continue à s'endurcir, vidé de toute émotion, aura-t-il la force d'âme requise, au mont Shayol Ghul, pour livrer son duel à mort contre le Ténébreux ?

Dans ce quatrième volet des Archives de Roshar, les destins s’entremêlent plus que jamais. Alliés ou ennemis, Kaladin, Dalinar, Shallan, Adolin… tous vont devoir développer des prouesses de ruse et de courage pour faire face aux dangers qui les attendent, à commencer par l’Assassin en blanc.

Spensa's life as a Defiant Defense Force pilot has been far from ordinary. She proved herself one of the best starfighters in the human enclave of Detritus and she saved her people from extermination at the hands of the Krell—the enigmatic alien species that has been holding them captive for decades. What's more, she travelled light-years from home as a spy to infiltrate the Superiority, where she learned of the galaxy beyond her small, desolate planet home. Now, the Superiority—the governing galactic alliance bent on dominating all human life—has started a galaxy-wide war.

« Eshonai inspecta le bouclier-tempête qu’elle portait dans le dos, puis prit dans sa poche la sphère contenant le sprène capturé par Venli et se cala sur le Rythme de Résolution. L’heure était venue. Les vents se levèrent et firent pression contre elle comme pour l’empêcher d’avancer. Elle sentit et entendit la tempête approcher. Le sol tremblait, l’air grondait. Une rafale glacée charria vers elle des fragments de feuilles, pareils à l’éclaireur d’une armée qui approcherait en chargeant et dont le vent hurlant serait le cri de bataille.

Hay secretos que hemos guardado mucho tiempo. Vigilantes. Insomnes. Eternos. Y pronto dejarán de ser nuestros.

As a Knight of Crystallia, I, Bastille, swore to protect the Smedry clan from the Evil Librarians. (And believe me, screwups like them constantly need protecting.) But when Alcatraz Smedry got strapped to an altar of outdated encyclopedias to be sacrificed to the dark gods, I arrived too late—and instead his father took his place. Now Alcatraz is a blubbering mess, so it’s up to me lead the charge against his father’s killer: Biblioden, founder of the Evil Librarians—I was sure he died centuries ago—who’s back to complete his goal of world domination.
