N. K. Jemisin

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 aug 2017

ACEASTA ESTE CALEA PRIN CARE LUMEA SE VA SFÂRȘI...PENTRU ULTIMA OARĂ.

Luna se va întoarce. Va depinde de două femei dacă această întoarcere va înseamna distrugerea omenirii sau ceva mult mai rău.
Essun a moștenit puterea lui Alabaster Tenring. Cu ajutorul ei, Essun să își găsească fiica pe nume Nassun și să făurească o lume unde fiecare copil orogen poate crește în siguranță.
Pentru Nassun această putere vine prea târziu. Ea a fost părtașă la răul acestei lumi și este conștientă de ceva ce mama ei nu dorește să admită: uneori ceva corupt nu poate fi purificat, ci doar distrus.

Descriere scurtă

The incredible conclusion to the trilogy that began with the Hugo Award-winning The Fifth Season
· Shortlisted for the Hugo, Nebula, Kitschies, Audie and Locus Awards
· A New York Times Notable Book
· The inaugural Wired.com book club pick

The Moon will soon return. Whether this heralds the destruction of humankind or something worse will depend on two women.

Essun has inherited the phenomenal power of Alabaster Tenring. With it, she hopes to find her daughter Nassun and forge a world in which every outcast child can grow up safe.

For Nassun, her mother's mastery of the Obelisk Gate comes too late. She has seen the evil of the world, and accepted what her mother will not admit: that sometimes what is corrupt cannot be cleansed, only destroyed.

Praise for this trilogy:
'Amazing' Ann Leckie
'Breaks uncharted ground' Library Journal
'Beautiful' Nnedi Okorafor
'Astounding' NPR
'Brilliant' Washington Post

Recenzii

"Heartbreaking, wholly unexpected, and technically virtuosic, The Fifth Season is a tour-de-force. I felt every shock--and the book is packed with them--in my marrow. It's no exaggeration to say that Jemisin expands the range of what great fantasy can be."—Brian Staveley, author of The Emperor's Blades
"Jemisin is now a pillar of speculative fiction, breathtakingly imaginative and narratively bold."—Entertainment Weekly
"[N. K. Jemisin] has pretty well conquered [the epic fantasy scene] with the Broken Earth."—The New York Times
"Jemisin deliberately refuses to provide easy answers: they're simply not available, in this world or ours. Painful and powerful."—Kirkus (starred review)
"Vivid characters, a tautly constructed plot, and outstanding worldbuilding meld into an impressive and timely story of abused, grieving survivors fighting to fix themselves and save the remnants of their shattered home."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"The depth and breadth of Jemisin's achievement with this trilogy is geologic. These books are a revolution in which I want to take part."—NPR Books
"Incredible, wildly original . . . [The Stone Skyis] blowing me away."—The Verge
"A real tour de force . . . one of the best fantasy trilogies in recent memory."—RT Book Reviews (five stars)
"The powerful conclusion to the "Broken Earth" trilogy will please the author's many fans with its fully developed world, detailed settings, and complex characters."—Library Journal
"[N. K. Jemisin's] books have abstracted real-life race issues in a way that serves to magnify the truth."—Washington Post
"Intricate and extraordinary."—New York Times on The Fifth Season
"[A]n ambitious book, with a shifting point of view, and a protagonist whose full complexity doesn't become apparent till toward the end... Jemisin's work itself is part of a slow but definite change in sci-fi and fantasy."—Guardian on The Fifth Season
"Astounding... Jemisin maintains a gripping voice and an emotional core that not only carries the story through its complicated setting, but sets things up for even more staggering revelations to come."—NPR Books on The Fifth Season
"Jemisin's graceful prose and gritty setting provide the perfect backdrop for this fascinating tale of determined characters fighting to save a doomed world."—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) on The Fifth Season
"A must-buy...breaks uncharted ground."—Library Journal (Starred review) on The Fifth Season
"Jemisin might just be the best world builder out there right now.... [She] is a master at what she does."—RT Book Reviews (Top Pick!) on The Fifth Season
"Stunning and well constructed ... a book that imbues itself with deeper meaning the more it unfolds and reveals itself, and by the end, I saw everything in a new light. I knew Jemisin was talented, being a huge fan of her Inheritance and Dreamblood books, but here she employs heretofore unseen skills."—Lightspeed on The Fifth Season
"Brilliant...gorgeous writing and unexpected plot twists."—Washington Post
"One of the most celebrated new voices in epic fantasy."—Salon.com
