Goodreads review by Patricia on January 15, 2017

This was going to be 4.5* but OMG that ending. That epilogue! Just when you thought you knew where the story was heading, it would twist and turn. It went from nice YA fantasy to epic in a few pages with some of those revelations. It was action packed from the very first page with battles galore. An......more

Goodreads review by Stacy on January 18, 2018

Ok so the first book in the series was a lot of world and character building, with action picking up towards the end, but Fireborn starts with a bang and keeps raising the stakes! IMO Skyborn really sets the stage for the events and relationships that happen in Fireborn, and although I don't think I......more

Goodreads review by Kevin & Meagan on April 24, 2017

This is a terrific book. I read it over a week, which is not something I do with many books. This is a great second book in the series that explains several mysteries from the first. In doing so, the fairly centered book ratchets up to an epic story that is about more than 2 kids and a floating isla......more

Goodreads review by Lynette on November 06, 2018

4.5/5 stars!!! Oooo man this was good! I love the action and suspense! The characters are well written and the plot has you constantly wonder which side is good or bad. I will say it was a slower and more politic-y book than the first, which isn’t my cup of tea. However! You remember the “Between th......more

Goodreads review by Edgar on February 17, 2021

A strong follow up to the first book in the series. There were a lot more fighting/actions scenes that made the book more interesting and a lot more story building that build up the overall story for the trilogy and explained a couple more things in the series. I’m looking forward to reading the con......more


Quotes

"A must-read for fans of Michael Sullivan and Brent Weeks."—Library Journal on Skyborn

"Once you pick up Skyborn you won't want to put it down...I expect this series to fly off the shelves."—Kelly McCullough

"A soaring tale that nails the high notes. Skyborn had me gazing heavenward, imagining what could be."—Jay Posey, author of Three, on Skyborn

"A high-flying, dynamic adventure [that] soars confidently and will appeal to teens and adult audiences alike."—Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Skyborn

"In this exciting middle installment of the Seraphim trilogy... [Daglish] reveals additional layers of complexity and wonder, as well as increasingly high stakes. There is a heavy focus on action-packed aerial combat, and chaos and conflict escalate with every page, but this fantastical futuristic epic doesn't skimp on plot development and character moments."
Publishers Weekly on Fireborn

Dalglish's writing hits close to home, creating a world of uncertain political climate with dishonest characters and fantastical scenes of warfare. Fans of Skyborn aren't going to want to miss this strong follow-up.—Booklist on Fireborn
