Om denne bog

From the record-breaking, four-time Hugo Award-winning N. K. Jemisin comes ''a glorious fantasy'' (Neil Gaiman) - a story of culture, identity, magic and myths in contemporary New York City. The sequel to the critically acclaimed The City We Became, this is the final book of the Great Cities Duology.

Every great city has a soul. A human avatar that embodies their city''s heart and wields its magic. New York? She''s got six.

But all is not well in the city that never sleeps. Though Brooklyn, Manny, Bronca, Venezia, Padmini, and Neek have temporarily managed to stop the Woman in White from invading--and destroying the entire universe in the process--the mysterious capital "E" Enemy has more subtle powers at her disposal. A new candidate for mayor wielding the populist rhetoric of gentrification, xenophobia, and "law and order" may have what it takes to change the very nature of New York itself and take it down from the inside. In order to defeat him, and the Enemy who holds his purse strings, the avatars will have to join together with the other Great Cities of the world in order to bring her down for good and protect their world from complete destruction.

''Hopeful and enthralling, The World We Make is more evidence of [Jemisin''s] ferocious talent'' Esquire

''Jemisin brings her living-city saga to a satisfying conclusion, maintaining a sense of energy and excitement throughout'' Booklist

''Jemisin embodies the spirit of the city in as lush and lively a voice as ever and does a masterful job incorporating even more history and magic'' Publishers Weekly

''The conclusion to Jemisin''s Great Cities duology is a searing commentary on present-day politics as manipulated by a primordial evil...This riveting and powerful urban fantasy duology is masterfully written'' BuzzFeed News
