Sinossi
Anno 2380: ai cadetti dell'ultimo anno dell'Accademia Aurora sta per essere affidata la prima vera missione. Tyler Jones sa che, proprio perché è il migliore del suo anno, potrà reclutare la squadra dei suoi sogni. Peccato che, a causa del suo comportamento sconsiderato, come punizione gli vengano assegnati d'ufficio i cadetti scartati da tutti gli altri capisquadra, quelli con cui nessuno vorrebbe mai lavorare. Proprio lui, l'allievo più talentuoso dell'Accademia sarà al comando di una vera e propria banda di disperati: una diplomatica, cintura nera di sarcasmo, una scienziata sociopatica con la tendenza a sparare ai suoi compagni, uno smanettone geniale e dall'ironia pungente, un guerriero alieno con seri problemi di gestione della rabbia, una pilota abilissima con un leggerissimo debole per Tyler. Ma non è nemmeno questo il suo problema principale. Infatti, solo dopo aver risvegliato da un sonno lungo duecento anni la misteriosa Aurora Jie-Lin O'Malley, Ty scopre che proprio lei potrebbe innescare una guerra rimasta a lungo sopita e che, ironicamente, proprio la sua squadra di disperati potrebbe essere l'ultima speranza di salvezza per l'intera galassia. Comunque: niente panico!

(leaning forward so my lips touch the microphone) it's a YIKES from me! I, a keen admirer of Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman since 2017 when I read The Illuminae Files, felt fairly positive about this new world, these new characters. I tried to hold on to that wide-eyed optimism while reading this book Leggi tutto

" Do moons choose the planets they orbit? Do planets choose their stars? Who am I to deny gravity, Aurora? When you shine brighter than any constellation on the sky? " First I want to say that the only reason why this book got 4 starts from me is because the last 70 pages were AMAZING. I'm left spe
full review posted i'm going to be honest with you here, jay kristoff and amie kaufman were the duo to write one of my ALL TIME FAVOURITE SERIES (this is high praise over here, so listen up), so to say the expectations were HIGH was a freaking understatement and yet, here we stand: me, ready to ex
**4.5-stars rounded up** Apparently, this is what it feels like to have your still beating heart violently ripped out of your chest?!

Five gazillion misfit, outsider but truly entertaining stars! For so long I didn’t have so much fun when I was reading a page turner, captivating science fiction/ action book with witty, sarcastic characters! This was like reading a great combination of Guardians of Galaxy, Firefly( without space co Leggi tutto
"Us outsiders gotta stick together." There is nothing I love more than having zero expectations about a book just for it to tear me open, rip my heart out and make me ship pairings that will never ever ever ever be canon. I had never read a Kaufman/Kristoff book in my life before this one came around Leggi tutto
'who am i to deny gravity, aurora? when you shine brighter than any constellation in the sky?' jay and amie are the be all, end all for YA sci-fi, as far as im concerned, and its soooo good to be immersed in one of their stories again. the illuminae series is a pretty big act to follow, but this
