The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin
4.0

A lot of this book flies over my head, but that’s because I’m pretty dense and not a fault of the book. It’s also a little grimdark for my taste, but that’s just personal preference. I totally get why this book has to be this way. It works for the book and for the story being told.

All in all though, this was really good. Well written, great characters and exposition well told. I’m looking forward to The Obelisk Gate.
