The Kingdom of Gods

Dust jacket and interior illustrations by Reiko Murakami. Note #2: Given the erratic behavior of the USPS at this time, we cannot be responsible for copies of The Kingdom of Gods shipped via media mail. We urge you to choose Priority Mail or UPS, which we are comfortable standing behind. Our edition of The Kingdom of Gods will be oversized, printed in two colors throughout, with four full-color interior plates. The lettered edition will include an exclusive full-color gatefold illustration Sieh the Trickster, a billion-years-old child and first godling grandson of the fearsome, universe-spawning Maelstrom, plays too hard with a mortal brother and sister and falls in love. When a strange accident strips Sieh of his powers these two royal scions of the Arameri dynasty--the family who once enslaved Sieh and his father--must literally move heaven and earth to save him, while the implacable vengeance of a neglected deity threatens to shred all existence to rags. In The Kingdom of Gods, the glorious conclusion to N. K. Jemisin’s Inheritance Trilogy, death, lust, betrayal, and mercy collide. With unhesitating skill and deep empathy the author depicts a life turning from dream to reality, from mockery to maturity, from making wishes to making truth. Jemisin won Hugo Best Novel awards for all three books of her Broken Earth series. The broad appeal of her vision is clear here, too: the Inheritance Trilogy received nominations for SFF’s coveted Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy awards, as well as winning Japan’s Sense of Gender Award. For over a decade Jemisin has been an advocate for greater inclusivity in fiction and in the industry, and has been published as a leading genre critic in the New York Times and elsewhere. Her latest adventure is writing DC Comics’ newest Green Lantern, Sojourner “Jo” Mullein of Far Sector. These beautiful reprints of Jemisin’s earliest work remind longtime admirers of how she first began creating wonders, and give new readers the pleasure of realizing there’s much more to come.
