La continuación de Escuadrón, la nueva saga épica de Brandon
Sanderson.
Este es el segundo libro de una serie épica sobre una chica que guarda
un secreto en un peligroso mundo en guerra por el futuro de la
humanidad. En él continúan las aventuras de Spensa Nightshade, la joven
piloto que ha conseguido un puesto en el escuadrón de defensa de la
humanidad contra los ataques alienígenas.
En realidad, ella siempre quiso ser piloto: poder probar que es una
heroína, como su padre. Y aunque llegó a lo más alto, los secretos que
desenmascaró sobre su padre fueron aplastantes.
Los rumores sobre su cobardía resultaron ciertos. Abandonó su vuelo
durante la batalla contra los Krell. Peor aún# se volvió contra su
equipo y los atacó. Sin embargo, Spensa está segura de que hay aún más
por descubrir en esa historia. Y, si es necesario, viajará hasta el fin
de la galaxia para salvar a la humanidad.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The #1 New York Times bestseller!
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Reckoners
series, Words of Radiance, the Mistborn trilogy, and the Stormlight
Archive comes the second book in an epic series about a girl with a
secret in a dangerous world at war for humanity's future.
All her life, Spensa has dreamed of becoming a pilot. Of proving she's a
hero like her father. She made it to the sky, but the truths she learned
about her father were crushing. The rumors of his cowardice are true--he
deserted his flight during battle against the Krell. Worse, though, he
turned against his team and attacked them.
Spensa is sure there's more to the story. And she's sure that whatever
happened to her father in his starship could happen to her. When she
made it outside the protective shell of her planet, she heard the
stars--and it was terrifying. Everything Spensa has been taught about
her world is a lie.
But Spensa also discovered a few other things about herself--and she'll
travel to the end of the galaxy to save humankind if she needs to.
