N.K. Jemisin does it again (is anyone surprised?)! I was both eagerly awaiting this installment to see what was next for these brilliant characters and incredibly imaginative world, but I had no clue how the story would pick up from its predecessor—and wrap things up in one go. Of course, however, Jemisin is not only a master of fiction, but is also a particular talent when it comes to sequels, and this is no exception. With our avatars more sure footed in their city-powers, the fun of this book comes in their found family dynamic and creative problem solving, which now takes on a grander scale to save the entire multiverse! It’s Epic, and an excellent final return to a fantastical NYC.
