Hippo finished reading The Obelisk Gate : The Broken Earth, Book 2 by Jemisin N. K.
Content warning Spoiler for 'The Fifth Season' by N.K. Jemsin
Just finished the second book in this series, and it doesn't disappoint! I was wondering how she'd carry the plot forward given that they'd already revealed the three personalities (Damaya, Syenite, Essun) to be one in the previous book. Well in this one, she's gone with actually showing different perspectives...including an interesting one that I'm not going to reveal 😉
Here's where things actually come together, by the way. In the previous book, it was just following three different people (or what we thought were three different people) through their lives, and incidentally learning about the world on the way. (Like I said earlier, we were reading it to know more about the world but those people were doing it to get their own specific problems sorted). In this one, we're actually following along with the characters and all trying together to find out about the world.
