Praise for THE OBELISK GATE

“Jemisin’s follow-up to The Fifth Season is exceptional. Those who anxiously awaited this sequel will find the only problem is that the wait must begin again once the last page is turned”

Library Journal (starred review)

“Stunning, again”

Kirkus (starred review)

“Compelling, challenging, and utterly gripping”

Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Beyond the meticulous pacing, the thorough character work, and the staggering ambition and revelations of the narration, Jemisin is telling a story of our present, our failures, our actions in the face of repeated trauma, our responses to the heat and pressure of our times. Her accomplishment in this series is tremendous. It pole-vaults over the expectations I had for what epic fantasy should be and stands in magnificent testimony to what it could be”

NPR Books

“How can something as large and complex exist in [Jemisin’s] head, and how does she manage to tell it to me so beautifully? I can’t stand how much I love the Broken Earth trilogy so far”

The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms… is an impressive debut, which revitalizes the trope of empires whose rulers have gods at their fingertips”

“N. K.

Jemisin has written a fascinating epic fantasy where the stakes are not just the fate of kingdoms but of the world and the universe”
