Publisher's summary

The debut series from the double Hugo Award-winning N. K. Jemisin, author of The Fifth Season.

For 2000 years the Arameri family has ruled the world by enslaving the very gods that created mortalkind. Now the gods are free and the Arameri's ruthless grip is slipping. Yet they are all that stands between peace and world-spanning, unending war.

Shahar, last scion of the family, must choose her loyalties. She yearns to trust Sieh, the godling she loves. Yet her duty as Arameri heir is to uphold the family's interests, even if that means using and destroying everyone she cares for.

As long-suppressed rage and terrible new magics consume the world, the Maelstrom—which even gods fear—is summoned forth. Shahar and Sieh: mortal and god, lovers and enemies. Can they stand together against the chaos that threatens the kingdom of gods?

The Inheritance Trilogy begins with The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, continues in The Broken Kingdoms and concludes in The Kingdom of Gods.

Disappointing

This book was so weird and boring that I struggled to finish it. I mean really struggled... The first book in the trilogy was truly enchanting, the second less do, but still intriguing, but this one felt like pretentious nonsense to me. I was surprised and disappointed, constantly hoping that it would get better and at the same time, asking myself why on earth I was doing this to myself, but I wanted to know how the trilogy ended, so I pushed through it. Don't get me wrong. N. K. Jemisin is one of my all time favorite authors and I have loved all of her books until now. I guess you can't score a goal with every book you write, but in general, she is one the best fantasy authors of our time and I do recommend you go try some of her other books. I think I get what she was trying to do with this story, but she really struggled with the characters this time. They just weren't relatable, at least not for me. I could neither connect with them nor be pulled into the plot because I honestly didn't care what happened to any of them. Then when the long awaited ending finally arrived, it was just "meh..."
