About this listen

In this stunning sequel to The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, one blind woman will challenge the will of the gods and change the fate of the world.

In the city of Shadow, beneath the World Tree, alleyways shimmer with magic and godlings live hidden among mortalkind. Oree Shoth, a blind artist, takes in a strange homeless man on an impulse. This act of kindness engulfs Oree in a nightmarish conspiracy. Someone, somehow, is murdering godlings, leaving their desecrated bodies all over the city. And Oree's guest is at the heart of it....

Narrator Criticism

I loved the story and detailed Jemisin’s world is. I found the narrator’s voice and accent to be grating to my ear. Just a personal reaction, I’m afraid, but strong enough that I would like to listen to the story read by someone else.
