THE CITY WE BECAME

BY N.K. JEMISIN

Five New Yorkers must come together in order to defend their city.
Every city has a soul. Some are as ancient as myths, and others are as new and destructive as children.

New York City? She's got five.


But every city also has a dark side. A roiling, ancient evil stirs beneath the earth, threatening to destroy the city and her five protectors unless they can come together and stop it once and for all.

“People who say change is impossible are usually pretty happy with things just as they are.”

― N.K. Jemisin, The City We Became

“This is the lesson: Great cities are like any other living things, being born and maturing and wearying and dying in their turn.”


― N.K. Jemisin, The City We Became

“He pretends to be less special than he is, because the world has punished him for loving himself.”

― N.K. Jemisin, The City We Became
