"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
"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
"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
