THIS IS THE WAY THE WORLD ENDS ... FOR THE LAST TIME. The season of endings grows darker, as civilization fades into the long cold night. Essun -- once Damaya, once Syenite, now avenger -- has found shelter, but not her daughter. Instead there is Alabaster Tenring, destroyer of the world, with a request. But if Essun does what he asks, it would seal the fate of the Stillness forever. Far away, her daughter Nassun is growing in power - and her choices will break the world. For more from N.K.

A cool page turner (but I'm getting slightly tired of it)

Still binge reading this series. Read this one in two sittings... I like the characters, I like the psychology, I like way trauma is described, the way parenting is a topic, including bad parenting and abuse and their effects, etc. all this being said I'm growing kind of tired : the main impetus in the first volume, to me at least, was to understand. In this second volume it very much has to do with the main charater becoming more and more incredibly super powerfull. Very much specisesist is my main criticism I guess. In one page the author goes on about how communities go mad if they lack meat vs beans. (Granted B12). And precisely it could have been a way of imagining how to do without accessible B12 or imagine something of the sort. But then again this is a minor point : this is a good book.
