jakinabook 's review for:

The Obelisk Gate by N.K. Jemisin

5.0

adventurous challenging dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: A mix

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Yes

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

So often the second book in a trilogy struggles to find itself - the main plot stalls, the characters don't progress, and the book ends up feeling like a somewhat unnecessary stop before The Big Finish. Not so with this one!! It was SO good! Also uses second person really well.
