Jemisin does it again! As a New Yorker, this pleased me greatly, but even objectively this is an enjoyable as hell read. Everything you love about Jemisin’s work is here: genuinely innovative fantasy, an extremely lovable and interesting ensemble cast, fantastic worldbuilding, pump-your-first-in-the-air awesome moments, and more! I’m eager for the next installments in this series!
