Description
The World We Make by N. K. Jemisin is a glorious fantasy that explores the intersection of culture, identity, magic, and myths in contemporary New York City. The final book in the Great Cities Duology, it brings together the avatars of the city to stop a mysterious threat from within. A new candidate for mayor is using populist rhetoric to change the city's nature, and the avatars must join forces with other great cities to defeat him and the Enemy who holds his purse strings. The fate of the universe hangs in the balance, and the avatars must work together to protect their world from destruction. With its searing commentary on present-day politics and masterful incorporation of history and magic, The World We Make is a gripping conclusion to N. K. Jemisin's living-city saga.
