This was really good. This was my first N.K. Jemisin book, and I am impressed. When the twists were coming, I was at the edge of my seat. The narrator did a great job bringing more life into the characters. I don't fully understand the world, but I think the sequel will help me to better adjust. Very curious to see what happens next in The Obelisk Gate.

Excellent, unique fantasy novel. Very fast paced. I appreciated the different writing style (2nd person, lots of slang). Check trigger warnings.
