I would like to put a bit more enthusiasm in this review but the book was merely okay. Nothing stood out as being exceptional but there was enough to keep me going.

I enjoyed how you understood the world through Yeine's perspective. The beauty of Sky turned to strangeness as you understood who was involved in the political power struggles and that God's were using mortals as play things. Yet it was just okay.

I am familiar with Jemisin's work and this story wasn't enough to turn me off on the trilogy so I'll continue head first in to the next book and see if it picks up.
