WINNER OF THE HUGO AWARD WINNER OF THE NEBULA AWARD WINNER OF THE LOCUS AWARD FOR BEST FANTASY An Amazon Best Book of the Year The incredible conclusion to the record-breaking triple Hugo award-winning trilogy that began with the The Fifth Season 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.

The world building in this trilogy is so beautiful. One of those series where at the end you feel like you have left part of yourself behind.
I will definitely be rereading.
stunning. this series is important, relevant to our times, beautifully written and full of black girl magic. the kind of book that gets better, not boring, with rereading.
A phantastic read. Thank you Nora! The language is amazing, the story background outstanding.
In terms of relevance to me, the trilogy is right next to Asimovs Foundation and Simmons Hyperion.
