Review of 'The Kingdom of Gods' on 'Goodreads'

It's done and I'm not disappointed in that at all.

Personally I'm glad to have started with Jemisin's Broken Earth trilogy first instead of Inheritance because I'm not sure I would have continued reading her other works. Jemisin writes a good story but Inheritance wasn't as appealing to me.

I liked the change in POV for this book and how the previous books connected across the advancement of time. Because I didn't approach the series with the same focus as I would on Stormlight Archive or A Song Of Ice and Fire some characters, their significance, relatives and relations were a bit hazy for me; which became a problem when everyone from the previous books had an appearance or impact in the final installment.

The reviews for this book/series seem a bit divisive so I should be surprised I feel the way I do about the book/series.
