Resumen del Editor

Plummet into a kill-or-be-killed competition where a scrappy underdog hell-bent on revenge must claw his way to the top in this thrilling YA fantasy debut

Exiled to live as a Low, sixteen-year-old Conrad refuses to become heir to his murderous uncle. But Meritocracy is a harsh and unforgiving rule on the floating island of Holmstead, and when his ailing mother is killed by monstrous gorgantauns, Conrad cuts a deal to save the only family he has left. To rescue his sister from his uncle's clutches, Conrad must enter the Selection of the Twelve Trades.

Hunter, the deadliest of all the Trades, gains a fresh recruit with Conrad. Now he must endure vigorous training, manipulative peers, and the Gauntlet—a brutal final test that yields riches and status to whichever skyship crew kills the most gorgantauns. Forced to serve in the lowest of stations and unseen by all, Conrad overhears whispers of rebellion in the dark. Conrad had never known anything existed below the toxic black clouds of the Skylands . . . until now.

Grab your copy of Book One of the Above the Black trilogy today! This action-packed series is reminiscent of Attack on Titan and The Hunger Games—a great pick for fans of Pierce Brown, Scott Westerfeld, and Veronica Roth.

5/5

Great such a fun book. Fun characters and world. GREAT. I’m so hype for book 2

What an incredible story!!! I can’t wait to hear more!!!!

This story captivated me from the beginning. I never wanted it to end. I can easily see this in movie theatre’s doing so well because it is so unique and attention grabbing. I really hope this story is continued, I would start listening right as it comes out

This was incredible

I didnt know what to expect. I started it a while ago and was slightly intrigued but never got past chapter one. I decided today to listen to it, and I was absolutely hooked. I finished it in a day. This book is incredible, and I am so excited for the next one!

Utterly brilliant!

Best book I’ve read in quite a while. Great action, with characters you’ll cheer for. The narration is perfect.

How it kept the reader wanting more

I loved but hated how descriptive the action scenes are. I could feel every hit, stab, fall, etc.

The story was fresh and new!

Amazing job with this book! This is a must have! If you are looking for something new with a fresh idea, listen to it!

AHHH IT WAS SO GOOD

The characters are so dynamic! They make the story feel like it could be a real thing happening somewhere, that all of these people are struggling with their own internal conflicts.

I feel like this book had 4 separate climaxes and each one somehow managed to top the one before it!

This book is amazing and I cannot wait to read more in this series.

Rise!

It’s been a long time since I’ve read something learning to science fiction but I was drawn to this book. It had tragedy, action, betrayal, unlikely friendship, and new dangerous fantasy creatures, it was a great read and I think older kids would enjoy this book series. No worries about inappropriate adult situations. A few cuss words are thrown around but no F bombs.

Loved the characters

I almost never read YA or fantasy, and I loved this book. I can’t wait to continue reading the series. Marc Gregson is a great writer!

Voices

I loved the story and the narrator’s voices. I believe that his emphasis on dramatic made the main character seem more moody and weak than my mind would but it was still great.
