The incredible conclusion to the record-breaking triple Hugo award-winning trilogy that began with the The Fifth Season.

The Moon will soon return. Whether this heralds the destruction of humankind or something worse will depend on two women.

Essun has inherited the phenomenal power of Alabaster Tenring. With it, she hopes to find her daughter Nassun and forge a world in which every outcast 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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Amazing." (Ann Leckie)

"Breaks uncharted ground." (Library Journal)

"Beautiful." (Nnedi Okorafor)

Great story but for some reason did not "flow"

I usually "gulp" these books but this one surprisingly took some time to finish. Nevertheless it is still definitely a good book

Amazing end to a fantastic sci-fi trilogy

This book is a fitting conclusion to the the broken earth trilogy. It's a must read.

The storytelling skill the author uses

Loved the narrator, they made the trilogy come alive. Beautifully produced sound and quality too

Top level story telling.

N K Jemisin's characters are complex and emotionally raw. The epic storyline reaches raw emotional depths rare in such fantasy series.
The literary mastery of this series puts Jemisin on a level with the likes of Ursula LeGuin, Doris Lessing and Octavia E Butler. I am eagerly awaiting her next work.
The narrator did an excellent job on almost all of the characters, though Shaffa's accent slipped and slid somewhat between Scottish and other Rural British accents, it wasn't overwhelmingly distracting. Her voice and delivery was so delightfully smooth that it was a pleasure to listen to.

Confusing

The stone eater parts were a bit confusing and sometimes boring, but otherwise good book.

Grandios

Grandios und ein würdiger Abschluss für eine tollle Serie. Gut gesprochen und produziert. Bin begeistert.

Best one of the series.

Lots and lots of small breadcrumbs have been laid out in the 1st and 2nd one, on which this books plot revolves.
Same vibe and depth as the previous books, but better.

Difficult and amazing

A unique story - trilogy - with a world and beings both so like us yet so unlike us. Somewhat mesmerising.

My first audio book experience. Wonderfully read and interpreted.

A great series

I found this series almost by chance, while looking for a book to listen to on a long business trip. And what a find it was! A very innovative setting, characters I immediately feel in love with, and am innovative choice of second person narrator. Highly recommended!

This is a very special read

I am a geologist that enjoys fantasy books. I have not found a better yet.
