![]() ![]() ![]() Jemisin.Īnd finally imperial Syenite, who works as part of the order, who is subjected to a The Handmaid's Tale like treatment. The viperpit of school she end up into is fascinatingly sketched by N.K. Then we have Damaya, the powerful girl who was locked away because of an incident, and is psychologically manipulated in a terrible way to control her, Stockholm syndrome. Also the mother of the dead boy, Essun, is narrated in a you voice, quite something to get to used to. The detached, ironic, omnipresent and slightly snarky narration in the prologue is quite something, and gives the whole book a distinct feel. Then they'll break themselves trying for what they'll never achieve Kill those who scoff at those contradictions, and tell the rest that the dead deserved annihilation for their weakness and doubt. Tell them there is a standard for acceptance that standard is simply perfection. Tell them they must earn the respect which everyone else receives by default. Tell them they belong among us, no matter how we treat them. Tell them they can be great someday, like us. ![]() A very rich series with a lot of exploitation related themes merged into a story that in epicness is comparable to any excellent anime series Impressive, truly immersive and an addictive read, although I don't feel book 2 and 3 reach the brilliance of The Fifth Season. ![]()
