Description
The clan war goes global. In Jade War, the second novel of Fonda Lee’s Green Bone Saga, the fragile peace between the No Peak and Mountain clans shatters—and this time the battle for jade spills beyond the island’s shores. Published by Orbit in July 2019, this sweeping sequel picks up as Hilo Kaul, now Pillar of No Peak, faces enemies at home and abroad.
With the Mountain clan on the offensive and foreign powers circling Kekon’s jade trade, the Kauls must fight on every front: Shae steps into the treacherous role of Weather Man, Anden confronts his destiny far from home in Espenia, and old betrayals ignite an international war that will decide the island’s fate. Bigger, bolder, and more devastating than its predecessor, it earned starred reviews from Library Journal, Kirkus, and Publishers Weekly, and was a finalist for the Locus, Aurora, Dragon, and Ignyte Awards.
Read it after Jade City and before the finale, Jade Legacy—the middle movement of one of fantasy’s most acclaimed trilogies, and essential reading for fantasy fans.
