Contemporary Editorial Review

"The World We Make: A Novel The Great Cities" by N.K. Jemisin is a highly engaging and imaginative piece of speculative fiction. Set in New York City, Jemisin once again showcases her talent for storytelling and world-building. The book features tremendous dialogue, cool new city avatars, emotionally-gut wrenching scenes, and a spectacular and somewhat funny conclusion. Jemisin's writing is often compared to great authors like LeGuin and Butler, however, it is evident that she stands on her own as one of the best writers working today, regardless of gender or race. Her ability to challenge and inspire readers is commendable. While some reviewers feel that this book falls slightly short of Jemisin's previous work, citing a rushed quality, loose ends, and a lack of nuance in character portrayal, it is still acknowledged as a funny, imaginative, and endearing read. Those new to Jemisin's work are encouraged to start with her earlier novels and appreciate her growth as a writer. Overall, "The World We Make: A Novel The Great Cities" delivers a satisfying and original reading experience. It may be seen as too liberal or "woke" by some, but for others, it is a breath of fresh air in the science fiction genre. The characters are loved and there is a desire for more stories featuring them in the future.
