The Dreamblood Duology
By N. K. JemisinPublisher Description
From the NYT bestselling author of The Fifth Season comes a rich, original fantasy about a king gone mad with power in a world where magic is harvested from dreams.
In the ancient city-state of Gujaareh, peace is the only law. Upon its rooftops and amongst the shadows of its cobbled streets wait the Gatherers -- the keepers of this peace. Priests of the dream-goddess, their duty is to harvest the magic of the sleeping mind and use it to heal, soothe . . . and kill those judged corrupt.
But when a conspiracy blooms within Gujaareh's great temple, Ehiru -- the most famous of the city's Gatherers -- must question everything he knows. Someone, or something, is murdering dreamers in the goddess' name, stalking its prey both in Gujaareh's alleys and the realm of dreams. Ehiru must now protect the woman he was sent to kill -- or watch the city be devoured by war and forbidden magic.
The Dreamblood Duology is an omnibus edition that includes The Killing Moon and The Shadowed Sun.

“<strong>This book is fabulous </strong>
This book (both of them) is (are) amazing. It sucked me in and kept me riveted the entire way through. This is absolutely something I will read again and again. The world is deep and complex, but not so much that it would be confusing. And the characters learn and grow and change and are imperfect and are strong, but have struggles and weaknesses. And there are no shiney bows to neatly tie every piece of the book up, but the packaging at the end is even more perfect for the story than any neat bow would have been. This book is amazing and wonderful, I absolutely recommend it.”
