The Stone Sky

Humanity will finally be saved or destroyed in the shattering conclusion to the post-apocalyptic and highly acclaimed NYT bestselling trilogy that won the Hugo Award three years in a row.

"The gratitude and love I feel for these books, and for what The Stone Sky adds to the triptych, is staggering ... From a storytelling perspective, The Stone Sky satisfied me completely... 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.".  -  Amal El-Mohtar, NPR

This is the way the world ends... for the last time.  The Moon will soon return. Whether this heralds the destruction of humankind or something worse will depend on two women. Essun has inherited the power of Alabaster Tenring. With it, she hopes to find her daughter Nassun and forge a world in which every orogene 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.

"As the conclusion to a trilogy that started strong and then stopped, The Stone Sky gave me everything that I wanted, and then it gave me more. It’s devastating. Poignant and personal and almost impossibly powerful... The Broken Earth is in totality one of the great trilogies of our time, and if all is well with the world, its thoroughly thrilling third volume should surely secure N. K. Jemisin a third Hugo Award."  -  Niall Alexander, Tor
