5.0

This was an incredible second book- evolves everything the first starts in a way that flows and feels so naturally that it doesn't feel like a lore dump/shoehorned in.

Nassun is a real highlight here and Jemisin does a fantastic job of connecting characters and their behaviours in a believable way. Fantastic overall.
