From the reviews

Marginalia
The story was good, but not quite as good as the first book. I liked that Jemisin's heroine didn't take the easy way out.
B+
The Shadowed Sun
March 23, 2013
Interesting story and very interesting setting. The setting is essentially Egypt, but with dream magic that can heal or kill.
B+
The Killing Moon
March 16, 2013
This was a great book for the first 75% but then the story ran out of gas and there was little narrative tension in the last quarter.
