![]() ![]() This is a complex plot with intricately drawn characters and relationships. When an assassination attempt is made on the Weather Man of No Peak-one of the Pillar’s right hand men-a turf war seems imminent, and the future of Kekon and its two warring clans could be decided by a single act of violence. No Peak clan and The Mountain have an uneasy alliance, but that’s about to change. The story is set in an Asian inspired fantasy world on the island of Kekon, ruled over by two powerful clans whose highest ranking members use a special form of jade magic. This is my first book by this author and it was masterfully done!īecause this is an older book, I won’t do an in depth story recap, but here are the basics. But you can tell from my rating that I loved Jade City, and I’m impressed by just about every element Fonda Lee brought to the table. Many bloggers and reviewers have already praised this book in every way possible, and I’m not sure what else I can add to the mix. With the approach of the series finale later this year- Jade Legacy- I thought it was time to catch up. ![]() ![]() I was determined to read a backlist fantasy book for #Wyrdandwonder, and I’m so glad I made time for Jade City, a book that’s been on my TBR since it was released in 2017. The nitty-gritty: A nuanced, brutal, epic saga of clan rivalry, loyalty, betrayal and revenge, set in a vivid Asian inspired fantasy world. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the Publisher in exchange for an honest review. ![]()
