Brandon Sanderson has really become a firm favourite for me this year. I know the Mistborn series gets a lot of hype, but I have somehow managed to miss it off my list every year and instead replaced Skyward as his first novel to me. It hooked me from the word go, and now I have to read everything else he ever publishes. This novella was no exception.
Evershore is the third in a soon-to-be-published (in May, I think?) collection of novellas set in the Skyward Universe. The first two could be read between Starlight and Cytonic, but this one absolutely has to be read after Cytonic. It's a nice insight into what Jorgen (Jerkface!) has been doing whilst Spensa has been off-planet.
I really love his character. He's grown so much from the total Jerk he was when he was appointed the title of Jerkface. He really epitomises what it means to undergo some serious character development, deliberately, rather than because of the volume of negative reviews about him. I suppose Spensa is not so dissimilar!
This still ties in to the second novella really nicely, but Cytonic even more so. It's not so much that there are spoilers for Cytonic, really, it's that there are links to events within it which have much more weight when you already saw where they fit in the wider story during Cytonic. My only complaint is that I'm not sure that Brandon Sanderson and his co-author necessarily align so wonderfully. I feel as though I can see which parts of the narrative in each novella have been his and which parts have not been - this can be a bit jarring when you're used to a particularly writing style or narrative tone.
Regardless, I can't wait for the collection of novellas to be published in one place, rather than as the standalone e-copies they currently are. And this sets up brilliantly for Defiant!
