Shades in Shadow: An Inheritance Triptych
By N. K. JemisinPublisher Description
Three brand new short stories by Hugo, Nebula & World Fantasy Award nominated author N.K. Jemisin, set in the world of the Inheritance trilogy.
From the shadows of the greater stories, away from the bright light of Sky and wending 'round the sagas of the Arameri, come three quieter tales. A newborn god with an old, old soul struggles to find a reason to live. A powerful demon searches for her father, and answers. And in a prequel to the Inheritance Trilogy, a newly-enslaved Nahadoth forges a dark alliance with a mortal, for survival. . . and revenge.
Return to the world of The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms in these three interconnected short tales.

“Well, it looks like I am fully done with this series, unless the author comes out with more. I really enjoyed all these short stories, and think they added more to the trilogy in the best ways. The quotes from each book at the beginnings of each chapter really brought me back to each novel, and that made me really happy. Also, I am so happy Naha acknowledged Sieh possibly being somewhere else. It does give my imagination ways to imagine how the story could continue, even if the author never writes more, which is enough.”
