A review by izzalice
The Stone Sky by N.K. Jemisin

4.5

The Stone Sky is a brilliant finale to the series that made me realise just how much I cared about all of these characters, even when their motives were in opposition. The individual character arcs and stories came together in such a clever and satisfying way and I will forever be in awe of Jemisin’s mind. 

I think after the unravelling of the narrative style in The Fifth Season, it was always going to be difficult for the next two books to match up in quite the same way and yet I was still so intrigued by the different plotlines and history of the world. I loved having more of Hoa’s perspective in the last book and it really added depth to such an expansive overall tale. 

Please do check the content warnings for this series before diving in but also you should definitely give this series a go- it’s absolutely fantastic and each instalment is very likely to leave you staring at a wall in astonishment afterwards.
