Story
Dr. Sam Anderson is one of the most celebrated scientists in history. Ten years ago, he invented a device that changed the world forever. Now his life is about to be ripped apart—and his own creation may be to blame. One fateful morning, Sam discovers that his girlfriend has been murdered and that his daughter is accused of the crime. Sam believes she's innocent, but he can't prove it. There's only one thing he can do to save his daughter: confess to the crime. And so he does. But in the future, murderers aren't sent to prison. They're sent to the past.

Story
When Lister got drunk, he really got drunk! After celebrating his birthday with a Monopoly-board pub crawl around London, he came to in a burger bar on one of Saturns moons, wearing a lady's pink crimplene hat and a pair of yellow fishing waders, with no money and a passport in the name of "Emily Berkenstein". Joining the Space Corps seemed a good idea.

When H. G. Wells first published The War of The Worlds in 1898, the novel quickly became a sci-fi classic. The story of extraterrestrials from Mars invading Earth captured the public’s imagination, inspiring a famed 1938 radio broadcast with Orson Welles, several feature films, countless video games, and a best-selling musical concept album by Jeff Wayne in 1978, among others.

Publisher's Summary
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.

He’s done it AGAIN!
Another thoroughly enthralling new story with new characters with new powers within a new world filled with new enmities. How does he keep on coming up with such new stuff! I’ve read everything this author has and he never ceases to surprise me.
I loved every minute of it. Couldn’t stop listening. Thank you once again Brandon for writing something so epic that gets you “out of yourself” to reach to higher heights of glory- and yet- is still so accessible for readers both young and old.

I am a more of a Fantasy reader rather than SIFI! So this was a pleasant surprise and well worth the the day I spent listening.
Brandon Sanderson knows how to enthrall his listeners.

Enjoyable all the way through!
Engaging story (especially after the first 2-3 hours), likeable protagonist with an interesting cast of characters and more action than I'm accustomed to from Sanderson.
The narrator, Sophie Alfred, spins a great yarn. It's a brief tale compared to Sanderson's other work but the story benefits from it.
I would happily listen to narrative of Skyward Flight again. With any luck a sequel is planned.

Are you sitting comfortably
Don’t make any plans to move after starting this book because when you do you won’t be able to leave it until the very last sentence is finished A truly great ride.

Starts slow but ends well
I almost returned this book after the first few hours. I found it a bit slow to get going, following a standard story pattern that I've heard many times. About half way through it starts to throw some clues that there could be more depth to the story and I nearly didnt make it that far. The latter parts were solid and enjoyable so I'm glad I stuck with it.
The book is more teen target than i anticipated, I didn't notice anything along those lines when I looked it up, which is fine, just not as meaty as what I've listened to lately and what i expected after mistborn.
Narration was good, captured the teenage girl well. Very appropriate choice for this book.

Lightweight story For young adults audience
Main character is not really believable nor the world she lives in given any depth. A simple romp, enjoyable and easy to read/listen to book though.
English narrator has limitations when doing other characters, especially noticeable when each character is portrayed as one from the uk only. Scottish A.I. just weird.
