I thought this was genius you learn about the world (albeit with a ton of questions) and you learn about the main character’s life. It really gets into the world you’re about to dive into and shares the story of its main character. It feels like the entire first book is dedicated to Essun’s story and it’s not a short one.Īs a personal story, I absolutely loved the first book. As you continue to read the story, you find out more about Essun. She also finds that her daughter has been taken by him and now she’s on a mission to find her. We open the first book, The Fifth Season, with Essun finding her son’s been murdered by her husband. What would happen if we continue to move the way we have? Well, that answer is a terrifying one where the Earth takes out its revenge on its surface and all the living creatures on it. NK Jemisin decided to write The Broken Earth trilogy after thinking about the future of our world. What I got was nothing close to that and I’m grateful for it. When I first started this series, I thought this was going to be a Dune-style story of a future where the world is covered in sand, people are trying to live and not doing a good job at it, and the politics is a little funky.
