Stolen Skies is a 2022 contemporary fantasy novel by Tim Powers. It is the third of a series in which the protagonists are Sebastian Vickery and Ingrid Castine, following Alternate Routes and Forced Perspectives.Castine, now attached to Naval Intelligence, learns that an off-the-books operation is trying to capture Vickery, who has apparently learned something dangerous about the phenomenon commonly known as Unidentified Flying Objects. She goes rogue to warn him, and together they try to figure out what it is he knows that's so important. What they learn is that a recent uptick in UFO-related phenomena is leading up to a climactic event that threatens all life on Earth if it is not prevented.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); }) | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Stolen Skies / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: When Vickery asks to borrow one of Galvan's special cars, she shows him the pride of her fleet and enumerates its many virtues before telling him there's no chance she's letting him borrow it and giving him something less impressive instead. The pride of the fleet does end up coming into play toward the end of the novel, though true to her word Galvan drives it herself. | |

Area 51 | |
| Stolen Skies / int_95d5fa0e | comment |
Area 51: Plowman used to work at Area 51. He tells the protagonists that the official explanation is basically accurate and that it was never a home of alien secrets — except that once, coincidentally, a UFO crash did occur there. | |

Crop Circles | |
| Stolen Skies / int_cffd35ee | comment |
Crop Circles: Crop circles are real (apart from the ones created by the disinformation division of US military intelligence to confuse the issue) and the reason why aliens would bother making such a thing is key to the plot. | |
