My Review

If you’re looking for an intelligent, exciting, and thought-provoking novel that seamlessly combines science fiction and fantasy, then look no further than Jade City by Fonda Lee. And the best part? You can get the audiobook free. It’s a captivating story that will keep you engaged from start to finish.

Jade City has been compared to iconic works like The Godfather, Dune, The Left Hand of Darkness, and even John le Carre’s novels. The book delves into complex themes of colonialism, imperialism, and gender politics, making it an incredibly insightful read. Lee’s ability to make the reader care about and sympathize with leaders who are essentially ritualized gangsters is truly remarkable.

The characters in Jade City are vivid and compelling. Their complex traits, sorrows, and weaknesses are entirely believable based on their pasts. They are leaders who rule an entire society through violence and the threat of violence, and yet, Fonda Lee manages to make us care about them. As a listener, I found myself anxiously rooting for these characters, unable to put the audiobook down.

One of the most impressive aspects of Jade City is its world-building. Set in an alternative 90s, the book takes place in Hong Kong and features jade-wielding clan gangsters who protect the island of Kekon. The clans engage in power struggles and battles using jade, which gives them supernatural abilities. This unique blend of magic and sociopolitical complexity sets the book apart and makes it a must-read for fantasy fans who crave something different from the typical Tolkien-esque settings.

The narration by Andrew Kishino is superb. His delivery is both sharp and smooth, perfectly capturing the essence of each character without making them sound silly. He brings the story to life, making it even more immersive for the listener.

In conclusion, Jade City by Fonda Lee is a riveting and gripping novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The book offers a fresh take on the fantasy genre and explores themes of power, loyalty, and honor. With its intricate world-building, compelling characters, and thoughtful storytelling, it’s no wonder that this book has gained so many fans. I highly recommend listening to the audiobook, which you can get for free, to fully immerse yourself in this thrilling saga. Don’t miss it!
