Winner of the 2017 Hugo Award for Best Novel.

Book two in the record-breaking triple Hugo Award-winning trilogy.

The season of endings grows darker, as civilisation fades into the long cold night.

Essun has found shelter, but not her missing daughter. Instead there is Alabaster Tenring, destroyer of the world, with a request only Essun can grant.

The Broken Earth trilogy begins with The Fifth Season, continues in The Obelisk Gate and concludes with The Stone Sky - out now.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I really like the first book (The fifth Season) it felt fresh in it's setting and the caracterisation was great. the prose was also really good and second tense narrator was original.
But unfortunately, The obelisk Gate kinda indoes all that. Without going into spoilers : The main caracter Essun change drastically and it could have been well done but is never really adressed. The story becomes a drag in the middle and there arent enough fascinating reveals to carry the story. Too many sloppy info dumps and a pretty underwhelming ending.
A real shame, I really loved the first book and now am not even sure about reading the third one...

The narrator Robin Miles is still top notch, nice voice and good intonations/accents.

Disappointed
