This was so good, I'll probably re-read the entire series again by the end of this year. This was truly a 5-course meal of a trilogy. Jemisin never hesitated staring an ugly truth right in the eye and it really paid off. Nothing came easy and there wasn't a hint of a Mary Sue moment.

It was refreshing to be offered a series where the main character was over 40, had kids and had already lived a full range of experiences. This is the second series that I've read by Jemisin and as much as I loved the 1st one (The Inheritance Trilogy), this was even better. I hope it doesn't sound pompous, but you can see more maturity in both the writing and the story-line.

The audio-book narrator, Robin Miles, is headed to the top of my narrator list. She can add everything from an African to a Gaelic? to a Slavic accent without sounding fake. It really brings the characters to life in a nice way.

I'm sure I'll still be re-reading this series decades from now. It's easy to see why Jemisin won the Hugo back to back on this one.

Great ending to a captivating trilogy.

Compared with the two other books, it has the most dramatic visual landscape. When you stop to picture and imagine the scenes, they are truly spectacular.

The pace is, to my taste, the slowest of the three, except for the end, where things unfold spectacularly.

It feels a bit more plot-driven (sweating up the majestic ending) than character-driven.

The themes like racism reach another level with the author revisiting a prehistoric genocide.

Only thing I did not like is that the story dragged a bit by introducing many new backstory. By doing so, I feel like it left more hanging threads than resolved. The end does not really answer all of these.

All in all, the whole trilogy is a rich and deep read. The narration (“you”) which I though might be a literary gadget takes all its meaning within the story. ( )

Summary: In the epic conclusion to the Broken Earth trilogy, Essun, Nassun, and the fractured world of the Stillness stand on the brink of annihilation. As the Earth trembles with the weight of ancient secrets and cataclysmic power, mother and daughter must confront their destinies and the truths that bind them to the fate of their world.

This trilogy is great - really thought provoking.

This particular volume is confusing as hell but still interesting and vividly imagined. ( )

But breathing doesn't always mean living, and maybe... maybe genocide doesn't always leave bodies.
But there are none so frightened, or so strange in their fears, as conquerors. They conjure phantoms endlessly, terrified that their victims will someday do back what was done to them—even if, in truth, their victims couldn't care less about such pettiness and have moved on. Conquerors live in dread of the day when they are shown to be, not superior, but simply lucky.
