I first got introduced to N.K. Jemisin through her work on Green Lantern Far Sector, and I thought “Wow! It’s incredible the breadth of themes and worldbuilding and larger concepts she’s included so efficiently!” Everything I loved about that and more was put into this book. I can EASILY see why this won a Hugo, and I can’t wait to read the sequels!

Didn’t want to wait for death to come for you. Right.
Stupid, stupid woman. Death was always here. Death is you.

A little hard to get into because of all the made up terms and history behind the events you get thrown in. As well as too much of “what the rust” (instead of “fuck”) and other variations of it. A great story otherwise!
