Commentary Concering Books The Stone Sky (The Broken Earth #3)
This is the way the world ends... for the last time.The Moon will soon return. Whether this heralds the destruction of humankind or something worse will depend on two women.
Essun has inherited the power of Alabaster Tenring. With it, she hopes to find her daughter Nassun and forge a world in which every orogene child can grow up safe.
For Nassun, her mother's mastery of the Obelisk Gate comes too late. She has seen the evil of the world, and accepted what her mother will not admit: that sometimes what is corrupt cannot be cleansed, only destroyed.
The remarkable conclusion to the post-apocalyptic and highly acclaimed trilogy that began with the multi-award-nominated The Fifth Season.

There's really no easy way to put this, so I'll come right out and say it.This is one of the very best stories I've ever read. All together now, all three books in this trilogy, together, make up one hell of a great story.I am amazed. I cried. I was blown away by the sheer immensity of what was going on, of the implications and the revelations and the final action.Sure, we knew that one of two things must happen by the end of the second book, but I hadn't quite realized just how invested I'dA surprisingly spectacular conclusion to a surprisingly mediocre series. I was considering giving this five stars at some especially strong points. Maybe I still will, seeing as I am feeling generous. But it will take some deliberation.
A truly perfect concluding book to this excellent series. I thought all three books deserved five stars which is pretty unusual in a trilogy.Jemisin is an excellent writer. Her prose is good, her imagination is amazing and she expects a lot from her readers. No letting your mind wander while reading her books - one moment of inattention and you can miss a vital piece of information which will leave you totally confused chapters later. She also writes excellent characters who you care about and
A pretty solid 4 star finish to the series that ties up most of the loose ends.Less than a week after publication and I see there are already quite a few 5 star, favourite book status reviews out there. While I definitely liked this book, and thought it was well written and creative, I didn't think it quite matched the brilliant storytelling impact of the first book, The Fifth Season.What makes Jemisin's books such a joy to read are the combination of unique voice and imaginative worldbuilding
This book opens at the peak of edgy grimdark with this little gem:And I will tell you everything of how, later, as the quiet of death descended, I whispered:Right now.Right now.And the Earth whispered back:Burn.Which is so melodramatic that I could only imagine Hoa dressed as a teenage goth girl and I laughed out loud.The Broken Earth is hateful trilogy of hating; so it's appropriate that book 3 emphasised that the Earth was alive and conscious and really really hated humanity. Like every other
(4.5?) Way to start the year on a good note!Great end to this series, the pace was better than book two. A fascinating magic system and world building that I will now recommend to fantasy lovers!
Sale Alert 30Dec17 Kindle Daily Deal for $4.99 . This was one of the best series I read in 2017 and it is on sale today hereIf you didnt give this series a go because it is listed as Sci-Fi, dont let that deter you. This is probably one of the best completed Sci-Fi fantasy series Ive read in a while. As the third book in a very strong and genuinely unique series I had a lot of expectations going into the final book. There were so many things I wanted to know and the story had been so strong
