I'm not quite sure why this page has summary sentences for the Prologue and Part One and nothing else. I'm going to hide this in case whoever was working on it comes back to it and put a brief summary instead. The chapter summaries are quite well detailed if further information is needed. This is also the cringiest thing I think I've ever written

[[Spensa]] has dreamed of being a pilot since she was a child. Inspired by her father, then fueled with outrage by the [[DDF]]'s accusations of cowardice following his death, Spensa spends the next decade preparing for the [[flight school]] entrance exam. Gaining entrance to the program with the help of her new instructor [[Cobb]], Spensa teams up with nine fellow trainees to form [[Skyward Flight]] and battle the [[KRELL|Krell]], an alien force trying to destroy the [[Defiant]] colony. Aided by the mysterious stealth fighter [[M-Bot]], whom she finds abandoned in a cave, Spensa must navigate the pitfalls of flight school, uncover the truth about her father's death, and try not to die at the hands of an enemy starfighter.

'''Prologue'''<br>
A young [[Spensa]] journeys with [[Zeen Nightshade|her father]] through the caverns. Her father is alerted of a [[varvax|Krell]] attack and rushes off to the [[DDF]] to defend the people. He leaves his tools and pilot's pin with Spensa. During the attack, Spensa's father tries to leave the battle and is lost; from that moment he is branded the "Coward of Alta" and Spensa the "Coward's Daughter." Nevertheless, Spensa vows to go to [[flight school]] and become a pilot.
 
'''Part 1'''<br>
Nine and a half years later, Spensa is 18seventeen and living in the caverns. The day before she is going to take the pilot's test, she learns that Admiral [[Judy Ivans]] has ordered that she not be allowed in the DDF, no matter her skill or score on the test.
