Her most recent sci-fi novel, The City We Became, was published last year and featured on the New York Times bestseller list. Bringing together fantasy and the Anthropocene, Jemisin’s novel won rave reviews, and turned Jemisin into a household name.
The series teems with Jemisin’s characteristically dense and creative worldbuilding. It takes place on a planet with one giant continent called the Stillness, in which every few centuries its people experience a “fifth season” of catastrophic climate change. The first novel is called The Fifth Season, published in 2015. It is considered one of the most popular adult fantasy series in recent years, and launched Jemisin as one of the most beloved fantasy writers in publishing. Each entry into The Broken Earth series won the coveted Hugo Award for Best Novel, the first trilogy to do so. In a whopping seven-figure deal, Jemisin will adapt the series herself in her first screen credit. Jemisin’s bestselling series The Broken Earth is finally been developed by TriStar Pictures. We are living in a golden age of fantasy my friends - whether on screen or on the page.
