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.

Critic reviews

"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

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.

Grandios

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