Defiant is the fourth and final book in Brandon Sanderson's Skyward series. Events pick up not long after where book 3 ended with Spensa back with her old flight and about to face down the Superiority's galactic dominance to attempt to free humanity.

I went into this without having read the Skyward Flight novellas. Turns out this was OK as there is enough information contained within Defiant as the other characters bring Spensa up to speed so the reader has the context needed for the story.

For those hoping for a Spensa/Jorgen romance you are in luck! I can see how Sanderson has improved greatly in his romance writing as theirs was so sweet and nice to read.

I admit the book almost lost me with Spensa's continual self doubt since it felt so out of character and lasted for almost 3/4 of the book. For those encountering a similar frustration, Ch 30 is the turning point and well worth pushing through. Gran Gran gives one of the best speeches I've read in a while and I just absolutely love all the taynix. The last quarter of the book is written from alternating points of view that I enjoyed immensely. It really tied everything together for me.

Overall, this is a satisfying end to the series and Spensa's story, with all the loose ends tied up nicely.
