-Titulo Original : The World We Make A Novel (the Great Cities, 2)-Fabricante : Orbit-Descripcion Original: Review Jemisin is one of the most highly decorated writers in fantasy and science fiction today. New York Times/Ezra Klein Show Jemisin molds real world events from the past few years with magic and myth into this fantastical page-turner. If The City We Became is a love letter to New York City, then The World We Make is a love song. USA Today The kind of book you lose an entire day to...and emerge shaken and dazzled on the other end. The writing is clear and visceral and intense. It’s some of the most brilliant, unapologetic speculative fantasy I’ve read in years. Washington Post Hopeful and enthralling, The World We Make is more evidence of [Jemisins] ferocious talent. Esquire Jemisin brings her living-city saga to a satisfying conclusion, maintaining a sense of energy and excitement throughout. Booklist Its cathartic to imagine fighting these slippery, inimical forces with magic, to believe for a moment that some complex problems have direct solutions-that passion, faith, and the will to fight can make miracles happen. Perhaps the possibility of confronting those problems head-on might serve as inspiration for all of us facing variants of this issue in the real world and help us model ourselves after Jemisin’s characterization of New Yorkers: tough, nasty, but ultimately kind people who defend their own while embracing newcomers into their midst. A ray of hope in a dark time. Kirkus The conclusion to Jemisin’s Great Cities duology is a searing commentary on present-day politics as manipulated by a primordial evil...This riveting and powerful urban fantasy duology is masterfully written. BuzzFeed News Jemisin explores resistance and identity through magic and myth, expertly crafting a world in which contemporary concerns are met with catharsis. TIME Jemisin embodies the spirit of the city in as lush and lively a voice as ever and does a masterful job incorporating even more history and magic. Publishers Weekly Highly recommended for readers who loved the deep dive into myth and roots of American Gods by Neil Gaiman, those fascinated with conspiracy theories about politics and corruption, and anyone who loves a good adventure where plucky underdogs rise up and triumph in spite of themselves. Library Journal One of the most celebrated new voices in epic fantasy. Salon A love letter to a complicated city and the resilient spirit of its residents. Locus Praise for The City We Became: Its a glorious fantasy, set in that most imaginary of cities, New York. Its inclusive in all the best ways, and manages to contain both Borges and Lovecraft in its fabric, but the unique voice and viewpoint are Jemisins alone. ?Neil Gaiman The City We Became takes a broad-shouldered stand on the side of sanctuary, family and love. Its a joyful shout, a reclamation and a call to arms. ?The New York Times The City We Became is a masterpiece of eldritch urban fantasy. ?BuzzFeed News Jemisins fantastical stories are anchored in complex societal systems and fully-imagined new worlds?all with fault lines lying in wait?that aim to help us better understand our own. ?TIME Jemisin is now a pillar of speculative fiction, breathtakingly imaginative and narratively bold. ?Entertainment Weekly A love letter, a celebration and an expression of hope and belief that a city and its people can and will stand up to darkness, will stand up to fear, and will, when called to, stand up for each other. ?NPR Thrillingly expansive without ever becoming abstract or high-flown. ?The Los Angeles Times Three consecutive Hugo Awards and a cover blurb from Neil Gaiman?yes, its time for you to pick up a novel by Jemisin, whose speculative fiction has a degree of inclusivity rare in the science-fiction world. ?The Washington Post As always, Jemisins writing is visionary and immersive...[Jemisin is] a science-fiction/fantasy GOAT. ?GQ The City We Became is a raucous delight, a joyride, a call-to-arms, a ...
