gomango 's review for:

Jade City by Fonda Lee
5.0

I absolutely loved this book.

I read it because I like sci fi and fantasy, and it was recommended by NPR.

This book has it all: amazing worldbuilding, dynamic and complex characters, a captivating blend of magic and semi-modern technology, intricate politics, immaculate pacing, and strong female characters.

I held off from starting this series due to the length of the books. My initial reservation when I started the book was that there was a lack of female characters, but I was happy to see that soon changed.

I'm looking forward to reading some of Fonda Lee's science fiction. Her writing seems like it would be amazing in the genre.
