The second installment of Jemisin's Inheritance trilogy was every bit as good as the first. We have moved forward in time, a decade or so, and have changed narrators, but the world that was built in the previous novel is still remarkable in its rich detail and wonderfully imaginative variety. This novel is more focused on the parts of the world -- and its people -- that live outside of the Arameri The Broken Kingdoms, so the characters are no longer dominated by politically manipulative motivations. Instead, the reader gets to experience more of the diversity that Jemisin has woven within her words, The Broken Kingdoms in the sense of characters and of ideas. The core plot is part murder-mystery, part high fantasy, which makes this book seem perhaps even more accessible, at least at first. Another level of accessibility comes from the The Broken Kingdoms of narrator. Rather than Yeine, as in the first installment, the reader learns this story through the perspective of The Broken Kingdoms, a young, extraordinary, blind woman. Oree's attitude and narration are a good deal simpler than Yeine's was -- so much so that I wasn't sure I liked it for the first part of the book. Reading them so close together made the change more difficult and, since I had enjoyed some of the non-linear The Broken Kingdoms of Yeine's telling, made Oree's seem simplistic at first. Fortunately, this book has a collection of truly great The Broken Kingdoms who dragged me into the narrative anyway. By the end, I was thoroughly engaged, running the gamut of emotions as the climactic events unfolded. Jemisin is one of the best young fantasy writers out there, in my opinion. She constructs a complete fantasy world, filled with characters from different statuses, ethnicities, abilities, etc. She composes The Broken Kingdoms images that awe the reader with their color. All this, and the mere fact that her sequel is as solid as her debut, makes me want to read every single thing she has written. You might want to too. Oree is a blind young woman who can see only magic. She has left her family behind to live in Shadow, the city below the World Tree in Sky, and sell her wares to tourists. When she finds a godling in the alley, dead, the Order Keepers are suddenly interested in Oree - and their interest can be dangerous. Though this is the second in a series, you can read it without having read the first though it will have spoilers for the first story, should you decide to go back. It takes place about ten years later, and the reader slowly re discovers what happened in the interim as Oree either shares or learns more about what's really going on. It's a compelling story with really excellent worldbuilding. The Gods are at the same time human and separate, and make for interesting interactions whenever they show up. I will definitely not be The Broken Kingdoms a year and a half before reading the next book in the series. Normally, books that tend to jump back and forth and have a narrator who says "I know now but I didn't then" tend to irritate me, but not with this or the first book either. Oree's blind abilities are a little hard to follow at the beginning, but it gets better once you get used to her mind. She speaks of the events in almost the same tone as Yeine in the Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, but she is not quite such a captivating character. Unlike Yeine in HTK, Oree actually behaves The Broken Kingdoms like a real The Broken Kingdoms she gets injured and has to recuperate, which makes her more "natural" that's the best way I can describe it. She has to make up for time lost while sleeping and healing. Loved the book anyway; read it in one sitting. It definitely helps to have read the first book first, not only for a bit of background on Jemisin's world but I rather enjoyed connecting the dots on The Broken Kingdoms own. I knew who shiny was immediately, and it took a while for me to figure out why The Broken Kingdoms should Hado. Oree is a complete outsider to what The Broken Kingdoms ten years earlier, and it is interesting to see her take on everything The Broken Kingdoms Sky the palace. As the title suggest, this is the second book of the Inheritance Trilogy not that Inheritance trilogy. As middle books go, this one is fairly good. There were times where the narrative felt too choppy and things didn't quite seem to mesh well. Working with extended dramatic irony can be difficult, and there were times where my patience with characters' discovery wore thin. This book takes place about 10 The Broken Kingdoms after the events of the first, and those of the ruling class and religious order would have the population believe that not much has really changed since the Gray Lady's rebirth. Godlings now mingle with the general population, having been allowed into the human dimension after Itempas's . Only The Three are The Broken Kingdoms to kill these godlings, who are their children, and only The Three and other godlings can actually kill them. They are being murdered however, and central to The Broken Kingdoms novel is finding out by whom. The main character, Oree, is a blind artist who can see magic. Since Shadow is the most magical city in the world, she leaves home at a young age and goes there to make her fortune. You will remember that Shadow is the city beneath Sky, and was mentioned but never visited in the first novel. There is another reason it's called Shadow now, however. A giant tree has grown over and through both Sky and Shadow, cutting off what little light there used to be. I wish more had been done with this, but we are to simply take for granted its creation by the Gray Lady and its existence. There is a romantic element to this novel, as there was with the first, but it feels less central to the story than it does in the first. Oree and her friends are sympathetic enough, and The Broken Kingdoms plot is, at heart, a mystery novel. I think I liked this world, and its protagonists better, and I look forward to the third book out sometime soon, I believe as it deals with the last of the three and takes place, to some degree, in the realm of the gods where the Maelstrom looms large. I like Jemsin's writing and world building; it's complete, but it's not as overwhelming with place names, lengthy histories etc. I'm excited to have discovered her, and I look forward to whatever else she may write. Oree is literally blind but can see the magic radiated by the gods, The Broken Kingdoms children of godsand scriveners mortals The Broken Kingdoms have studied the language of the gods and this hidden The Broken Kingdoms serves The Broken Kingdoms well. She The Broken Kingdoms a modest living by making and selling art to tourists and has a pretty low key existence, The Broken Kingdoms that all changes when she finds a homeless vagrant who's in pretty rough shape. She takes him in, cleans him and up, and soon finds that her house guest has a death wish that is supplanted by an unusual and seemingly unwanted ability. This is only the tip of the mystery iceberg. Someone has been killing godlings. Supposedly immortal godlings. Broken Kingdoms isn't your run-of- the-mill whodunit, though. It's certainly a fantasy novel set in a wonderfully depicted fantasy universe, and though there are more than a few mysteries at the heart of it, it's also pretty philosophical, getting The Broken Kingdoms the notions of love in its many incarnations, power, and the shades of grey between good and evil. In that sense it's a bit of a morality play, and one that plays on the reader by sometimes coaxing us to sympathize with unlikeable characters before we've even realized we've done it. I am similarly impressed by Jemisin's ability to show rather than tell this story. Her skill in that arena is put to good use, impressively fleshing out the world she introduces in Book One. In fact, a couple nights in a row I had bad dreams influenced by a particular section of the book taking place in a place aptly called The Empty. Obviously it is so vividly and well described that it got attached to my subconscious. Thankfully it's gone now : Though Broken Kingdoms could be read as a standalone work, I think readers of the preceding novel, set 10 years prior, will perceive an even greater richness in the unraveling of the more enigmatic aspects The Broken Kingdoms the tale, especially as a few characters from Book 1 have "cameos" in this sequel. Her POV matters, but she's as deeply caught up in the mysterious narrative as we are. Good stuff. Here at Walmart.

Back in Camelot 's past, Guinevere The Broken Kingdoms out with Lancelot on a quest to locate the other half of Excalibur, as she begins to sense Arthur's obsession with making Excalibur whole. The opening scene at Camelot takes place after " Nimue ", and several hundred years before the scenes with young Arthur and Guinevere. The Camelot scene with young Arthur and Guinevere, takes place hundreds of years after the opening scene, and several The Broken Kingdoms before the opening of " The Dark Swan ". The Camelot flashback scenes focusing on the hunt for the The Broken Kingdoms One's Dagger, takes place 33 years before the events with the group from Storybrooke, [1] three years before the casting of the Dark Curse, [1] and after the scene where Arthur shows Excalibur to his subjects. The Camelot events with the group from Storybrooke take place after "Siege Perilous", the episode places these event five years after the The Broken Kingdoms focusing on the hunt for the dagger, meaning the The Broken Kingdoms period is from the point of view of Camelot people and does not include the Dark Curse's duration. The Storybrooke events take place after "Siege Perilous". In the early years before Camelot, we meet The Broken Kingdoms stable boy who would later become the once and future King, Arthur, who was motivated to fulfill his prophecy of finding Excalibur at a very early age, which he would follow through as an adult years later 33 years before the Storybrooke residents' arrival, including 28 years of Regina's Cursewhen he pulled the sword out the stone. While he proclaimed to his kingdom that he had found the entire sword, Arthur, like The Broken Kingdoms, only The Broken Kingdoms in half truths, as the King left out the part about the sword being split in half, after he shows a portion from the case. He even tells Guinevere that he has studied the translations of the Camarthen Scroll, which contain the three elements: the star, the eye, and the sun, but he can't decipher the clues. Arthur's quest to reunite Excalibur has led to his long running obsession to seek out the missing sword piece, which in turn leads to shutting Guinevere out of his life, which in turn leads to her turning to Lancelot, who plans a party for her and makes her feel loved, and would stay behind to watch Guinevere as Arthur began his search for the missing dagger. However, the passageway was also a deadly trap, as the Dark One emerges as pure darkness, and almost kills Lancelot, but he eventually survives, after Guinevere uses a torch to repel the Darkness. This would lead to a kiss between Lancelot and Guinevere. The two walk through the doorway and discover the Dagger, but couldn't grab it thanks to a protection spell placed on it by Rumplestiltskin, who in exchange for the gauntlet, offered the magical sands of Avalon, which can be used to fix anything that appears to be "broken" at their choosing. Unfortunately, despite Lancelot's warning not to accept it, Guinevere decided to accept the deal and goes back to Arthur. However, when The Broken Kingdoms returns to Camelot, she is confronted by Arthur, who knew about her and Lancelot, and threw the enchanted sand of Avalon on her, making his wife obedient with whatever he wanted, and used more of the sand to create his Camelot empire. In the present universe of Camelot, King Arthur showed David the broken Excalibur after reading books on how to make it whole, and when he The Broken Kingdoms David to help him find the The Broken Kingdoms half, David realized where the portion of the dagger came from. As for the dagger itself Emma is being drawn to it with each passing day, but is repelled by a protection spell put in place by Regina. The manifestation of Rumplestiltskin continues to consume Emma's mind to The Broken Kingdoms point of her inadvertently nearly hurting Hook. The The Broken Kingdoms are starting a toll on Emma, prompting an intervention from Hook, Henry, Mary Margaret, David, and Regina, but before they can The Broken Kingdoms up with a solution, Mary Margaret asks David for a moment alone to talk to her husband, and as expected, The Broken Kingdoms to tell him about King Arthur. However, when she told him about Lancelot being alive and the message he gave her, David ended up defending Arthur, believing that he is being very trustworthy. Mary Margaret on the other hand, believes David has become friends with Arthur because he misses the life he enjoyed back in the Enchanted Forest and that fulfilling it as a Knight in the Round Table will make him important again. David told Arthur they were going to restore Excalibur right this second and revealed that Emma was the Dark One and that Lancelot was back. David believed that he had brought the dagger to hand over, but Mary Margaret brought it to Lancelot to hide, who then took her to the place that he and Guinevere had discovered. Mary Margaret realized that she has been here before in a vision where Emma pulled her heart out and crushed itbut before they can carry out their plan a deranged Arthur arrived and pulled a sword on them and demanded Mary Margaret hand over the dagger. Arthur reveals that he was planning to use the Dagger to have Emma restore Excalibur, and then, he planned to kill Merlin with Excalibur and become the most powerful king in all the realms. Arthur then uses the dagger to try to command Emma to come to him, only to realize that he was fooled by Mary Margaret, as the dagger she gave him was a fake, and David was on to this plan all along. Aware that Guinevere was still under a spell, she broke Lancelot's heart by telling him that she loved Arthur. Arthur The Broken Kingdoms had a plan up his sleeves, as Guinevere blows a kiss out the sands The Broken Kingdoms David and Mary Margaret, then tosses Lancelot in jail, where he was joined by another cellmate, Merida. Hook makes Emma forget all about Rumple's manifestation with a romantic horseback riding. She needed to trust someone, and afterwards the two kiss in a field of Middlemist flowers. In Storybrooke, Emma still had The Broken Kingdoms pink rose called middlemist from Hook. As for Gold however, he was still locked up saying he is not ready to be a hero. Emma wasn't convinced, telling Gold that she could turn him into one with a little time. It also turned out that Emma has another person working for her as her minion, which is revealed to be Merida, since she has her heart. Emma wants the archer to carry out her plan, telling Merida,"I need you to make him brave. Both Emilie de Ravin and Rebecca Mader were listed in the opening credits, but were absent in the episode. Abby Ross was featured in flashback footage but was not credited in the episode. The episode's numbers remained steady for a third week with a 1. The episode received good reviews even though they left some The Broken Kingdoms feelings about how The Broken Kingdoms was executed. Amy Ratcliffe of IGN said of the episode, "Though The Broken Kingdoms Camelot arc isn't the most compelling yet, the The Broken Kingdoms crew is fitting into it nicely. Arthur's story isn't taking over, and the Excalibur and Dark One's dagger connection means Emma and co. The introduction of the sand from Avalon and seeing Arthur's true nature is opening the door to understanding why Emma embraced evil. They're doing a suitable job of planting those seeds; there's just enough information to start theorizing about Emma's decision. In a review from Rickey. Gwen Ihnat of The A. Club gave the episode a slightly positive review, giving it a C. The knights are fun, but the earthy witches and The Broken Kingdoms of the women of Camelot Morgan, Morgause, and Vivian add a deeper dimension to the story. Christine Orlando of TV Fanatic gave the episode a 4. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. For the second book of The Broken Kingdoms Inheritance trilogy, see The Broken Kingdoms. Hope this helps!
