À propos de cet audio

 After her mother's mysterious death, a young woman is summoned to the floating city of Sky in order to claim a royal inheritance she never knew existed in the first book in this award-winning fantasy trilogy from the NYT bestselling author of The Fifth Season.

Yeine Darr is an outcast from the barbarian north. But when her mother dies under mysterious circumstances, she is summoned to the majestic city of Sky. There, to her shock, Yeine is named an heiress to the king. But the throne of the Hundred Thousand Kingdoms is not easily won, and Yeine is thrust into a vicious power struggle with cousins she never knew she had. As she fights for her life, she draws ever closer to the secrets of her mother's death and her family's bloody history.

With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, Yeine will learn how perilous it can be when love and hate -- and gods and mortals -- are bound inseparably together. Action et aventure Fantaisie noire Fantastique Fantastique épique Fiction de genre Fiction littéraire Épique Fiction Redevances

Ce que les critiques en disent

"In the first book of Jemisin's richly detailed Inheritance trilogy, an outcast heroine must find a way to hold her own amid the treachery of her grandfather's court. I've got a special place in my heart for political intrigue, so this book was a delight through and through!"—Cassandra Clare
"THE HUNDRED THOUSAND KINGDOMS is the provocative and exciting debut novel by a writer whose work I hope to be reading for a long time to come."

—Kate Elliott, author of Shadow Gate
"In THE HUNDRED THOUSAND KINGDOMS, N.K. Jemisin has created a smart, passionate heroine and an extraordinary world. Marvelous work from a marvelous storyteller!"—Carol Berg, author of Breath and Bone
"Many books are good, some are great, but few are truly important. Add to this last category The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, N.K. Jemisin's debut novel... This is the must-read fantasy of the year."—Booklist

Couldn’t listen to this fast enough. Amazing writing and narrating. Can’t wait for the next book!

Another amazing book by N.K. Jemisin!

It’s a solid story, but the amount of second person is a bit much - but on par with the other books of this author.

Solid

The narrator was great and the prose was good. To me, there were some moments that lacked tension and interest. The character Cia was excellent and had some great lines. I found it hard to follow the logic or reason of the MCs actions at times and that's what brought the book down for me.

Book was okay

Meh. It was just okay. I struggled to get into the story then struggled harder to stay there.
I found the characters surprisingly bland (including the gods), the plot a bit confusing and the world hard to envision.
The narrator was little help. It was hard to differentiate the male voices.
Not a bad book but not a great one either.

I really wanted to like this book

great narration. story wasn't as complex and long as I usually like but it was compelling and unique.

enjoyable

This was a faster paced story with less well developed characters compared to Jemisons broken earth trilogy or dream blood books. decent but not great. I'd recommend her other works instead.

not as good as other Jemisin books

I’m a huge fan of Octavia Butler, so someone recommended Jemisin. It’s very different, but she’s equally adept at world building! I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

Excellent world building!

I have read the broken earth triology not too long ago. It’s interesting to read the story a few months after that story; these tales are so different, their vibe, tone, and story telling. But one similarity is the uniqueness of the characters and stories.

Something to keep in mind for this story is that you may not always understand where it’s going, and that’s okay. Stick along for the ride and remove your expectations of how story telling should be. I do think reading this book with text might be helpful, sometimes it was hard to follow who we were listening to. But I enjoyed this.

An interesting Journey

It was confusing at first and honestly, a little confusing near the end as well. Specifically with the multiple personalities thing going on with Naha. There are so many names of people places and things that it can be hard to keep up at first. But if you stick with it, it wraps up in a very satisfying way. The tale itself is very elaborate and fascinating.
I read for romance, so I'll mention that too. The lead up to any spicy bits are kind of... meh... and the spicy parts themselves are ok, very tasteful and non graphic if that's your preference. The lack of real "wow" in the spice could be due to the narrator not putting any serious emotion into the reading. which leads me to the next bit...
It was read very well, the voices were well done and consistent. The only part that makes me feel it is not 5 star worthy, is the lack of real emotion. Some parts could have been very intense or dramatic if they were spoken in such a way.

wraps up nicely

Jemisins work here is captivating magic as always. Knowing it was part of a trilogy is the only thing that settled my heartache as I felt the book coming to an end.

Never disappointed
