📚✨ Troy Lecture Spotlight ✨📚
As @umasshfa welcomes N.K. Jemisin for the 2026 Troy Lecture, it’s the perfect time to revisit the groundbreaking The Broken Earth Trilogy.

This Hugo Award–winning trilogy (The Fifth Season, The Obelisk Gate, The Stone Sky) didn’t just raise the bar for speculative fiction — it reset it. Epic worldbuilding. Unflinching themes of power and survival. And a masterclass in craft.
