Resumen del Editor

In the Clandoms, every person is born with wings, along with the ability to fly. But there has always been one deadly restriction to this gift—a rule that must never be broken. Flying in cloudy skies summons gargols, vicious stone monsters that will tear any poor trespassers apart.

History doesn't tell where the gargols came from, or why they're so intent on punishing those who soar too high. But now Ellie Meadows thinks she knows why. An aspiring knight turned wanted fugitive, Ellie has seen the truth with her own eyes. The Clandoms' history has been taken from them, along with their ancestral homes.

Only one person can return the Clandoms back where they belong. Nox Hatcher is the key to the skies, if only Ellie can get him to believe it.

Wow-but in a bad way

What?! Okay, I’m sorry but Jessica did NOT live up to expectations. I mean Nox and Ellie are constantly fighting and he keeps telling her that she is using him and she IS and then Twig loses his wings and Gussie betrayed them and everything is falling apart and I have to say-it was overall not a very enjoyable story! Like, we have this HUGE buildup where everything fell apart and then the only way it works out is when these total COINCIDENCES happen like Nox appearing just before Ellie dies and Ellie somehow smashes the earth stone(like, was I the only one who got NO explanation on that whatsoever?!). I must say, I was tempted to just go on to my next audiobook(well, I have none because I used all my credits) and just write a good review but no! I decided to actually think about the book and decide-was it a good book. So please, try to skip all the comments that are just yay awesome book! and more talking about the book alright? Great!

Don’t listen to Kindle Customer!!!

The only reason they didn’t get any explanation is because they weren’t listening to it enough! There was a big explanation right before Nox broke out of the rock! Anyway, I thought it was a good book because everything wrapped up nicely at the end. So I loved it!

Excellent YA book!

Jessica Khoury is one of my favorite YA authors and her audio books are always amazing. This Skyborn series is even more complex and meaningful than I’d anticipated and still super entertaining and exciting!

Loved it

Please write more books on the subject . Loved all three So far. Thank you so much

We are skyborn!

It was an interesting turn on skyborn. they added way more magic to the story which was fun and did amazing on the tragedy parts. Guusy is a traitor and twig lost his wings. Nox and Ellie are disfunction without other friends. A lot of it was just Nox and Ellie whining.

did not disappoint

the 3 books are amazing. I couldn't stop listening. I laughed, cried, got angry, for all the feels. I assume they're targeted to children and young adults, but this 49 year young woman loved it all.

This is suck a great and fantastic book

I enjoyed listening this book and it is a work of art. It leaves you clutching to your seat in anticipation. I have never listened to a book so great as this one. I would definitely recommend this audiobook and the entire skyborn series to the ages of 9-17.

I love how well the author builds the relationship of Ellie and Nux really establishing deep and heartfelt connections.

Skies

A joy lifting book. After I listened to it, I start to wonder what it would be like to have wings of my own.
Here for people who believe and imagine a better world.

Watch the skies.

Adventure

Great narrators, good story line, good characters. Lots of action and adventure for a wide age group.

Too confusing

Only liked the part where Emily Eiden narrated.Also I listened for like an hour in first two audiobooks to make Nox and Ellie reform their relationship and it took 6 seconds to break it again.Also I’m not sure how many Skybourne died.
