Approximately a decade following the debut of author N.K. Jemisin’s trailblazing novel “The Fifth Season,” the epic “Broken Earth” trilogy is being released in an impressive new deluxe box set edition. Although Jemisin has penned numerous books throughout her career, she may still be most recognized for the “Broken Earth” trilogy. This captivating series centers around a woman named Essun who embarks on a quest to find her daughter in a world plagued by recurring environmental disasters, referred to as the “Fifth Season.” Essun is an orogene, a unique individual with the power to control and manipulate earth, stone, and geothermal energy. Due to this ability, orogenes have historically been subjected to brutal oppression by those who fear their strength.
