À propos de cet audio
This is the way the world ends. For the last time.
A season of endings has begun.
It starts with the great, red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun.
It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter.
It starts with betrayal,and long dormant wounds rising up to fester.
This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the Earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.
A new fantasy trilogy by Hugo, Nebula & World Fantasy Award-nominated author N. K. Jemisin.

The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.

In the ancient city-state of Gujaareh, peace is the only law. Upon its rooftops and amongst the shadows of its cobbled streets wait the Gatherers - the keepers of this peace. Priests of the dream-goddess, their duty is to harvest the magic of the sleeping mind and use it to heal, soothe . . . and kill those judged corrupt. But when a conspiracy blooms within Gujaareh's great temple, Ehiru - the most famous of the city's Gatherers - must question everything he knows.

1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization.

Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

After the old gods warred and drove themselves to extinction, the cataclysm of their fall shattered the land of Vigrio. Now, power-hungry jarls carve out petty kingdoms, and monsters stalk the shadow-haunted woods and mountains. A world where the bones of the dead gods still hold great power, promising fame, and fortune for those brave - or desperate - enough to seek them out. As whispers of war echo over the plains and across the fjords, fate follows the footsteps of three people. All three will shape the fate of the world, as it once more teeters on the edge of chaos.

So very, very good. An auspicious beginning of a trilogy that traces three parallel stories in a world far, far from here, reflecting on service, servitude and freedom. Maybe not so far from our world, afterall.

Riveting, Fascinating, Unique!
I plan to read / listen to a lot more books in 2022, but this may hold the title for favourite fantasy book for the next 10 months regardless.
First off, this was amazing. And for the audiobook, the narrator is stellar.
The storytelling method in this book is unique, I LOVE the revelation about the protagonists and how one POV is written in the “you” format, ex: you look up, you know better, you sigh. Etc. I found it utterly fascinating and immersive.
The prose is gorgeous, I found myself pausing over sentences, appreciating the new way of describing things, the beauty of metaphors.
The world building is superb, what a stunning, yet scary and dark place. The systems of governance, community gathering, planet cycles and magic/powers are a lovely, yet violent blend of high fantasy and raw, apocalyptic, dystopian hell. The characters are robust, vibrant, sarcastic, flawed and intriguing. It’s a story and world I need to know more about.

Good Book!!
Highly enjoyable and I am jumping right into the next book. I didn't want this one to end! Plus it's a trilogy so it's not a 10 year endevour like Wheel of Time (loved WOT but it is long).

Perfect for those who love philosophical spec-fic
N.K. Jemisin's The Fifth Season is speculative fiction at its most masterful. Jemisin has built a world and mythology to give us new perspective on our own, and she has populated it with complex characters who keep us engaged, sometimes enraged, and hopeful. For all the challenges she throws at her characters in the darkness endemic to her world and ours, there is a humane center to her work, a sense of possibility and care in a world often been powered by exploitation. Jemisin also created a natural vocabulary—I imagine "sess" may find its way into English the way "grok" has done. ("I didn't really grok it until I sessed what she was doing.") Narrator Robin Miles is a talented performer who voiced every role with sensitivity and brought each scene to life. #Audible1

this is a work of fantasy that doesn't fall into the typical tropes of fantasy novels. The magic is unique, the culture is unique and the interactions between the different groups of people are original / interesting. Recommended

Phenomenal fiction
This is an incredible book. The characters are well developed and likeable. The setting and society of the book are revealed skillfully and gradually as the author takes her characters on their respective journeys. I quite enjoyed Robin Miles' voice and reading; I'm very much looking forward to re-listening to this and picking up the next two novels in the series.

Great setting! interesting storytelling!
I loved the setting. It seemed entirely well thought out: the people, cultures and geology. The manner in which the story is told was also captivating. The only flaw is that I felt some descriptions of the various settings/ideas were too vague. A lot of words and little in the way of substance, it seemed to me. Perhaps, in the physical reading I might find what I have missed when listening. This is a small issue born of my absolute immersion so an overall 5 stars!
Would absolutely recommend!
