In the nowhere, Sanderson creates a whole new world setting with different rules for time and bodily needs with fun geography as the “land” is hundreds of floating islands held aloft by acclivity stone. It is here that she might finally be able to get answers about cytonics, the delvers, and maybe a way to save her people from being wiped out by the delvers and Superiority.

This time it is like a grand storybook adventure as Spensa and M-Bot find themselves in the nowhere, the in between space Spensa goes when she ‘jumps’. That said, I greatly enjoyed this new chapter in Spensa and M-Bot’s adventures. Unknown if there will be books after as it just says, “Spensa will return in Defiant”. Silly me assumed it would be a trilogy but nope, there will be a fourth book called Defiant. Excited because there was more but a little disappointed it wasn’t a standalone. When I set out to read Skyward I thought it was a standalone novel and had mixed emotions to find out it wasn’t. In my review for Starsight I wondered if the pandemic would affect Cytonic being released in late 2021, fortunately through what sounded like a lot of hard work editing and deadlines, he and his team succeeded. Here are reviews for book one Skyward and book two Starsight. Cytonic is the third book in Brandon Sanderson’s “Skyward Series”.
