I love that Jemisin has an incredible ability to mythologize, and she does it beautifully as usual. I don't know that any other writer captures the ineffability of godhood the way she does. But this book felt like a haphazard means to achieve an end (and I do like the end and think it makes sense, but the getting-there is frazzled and has more than a few confusing plot holes). The character development and relationships are much stronger in the first two books and the main villain/problem are a confusing coverup for the real problem of the book. The story did a lot but it was trying to do even more (probably too much).
That said. I would read a whole novel about Glee Shoth. Please and thank you.
