Hear Hugo and Nebula award winning author N.K. Jemisin read from her new book The City We Became.

Every great city has a soul. Some are as ancient as myths, and others are as new and destructive as children. New York City? She's got six. But every city also has a dark side. A roiling, ancient evil stirs in the halls of power, threatening to destroy the city and her six newborn avatars unless they can come together and stop it once and for all.

Speculative fiction master N.K. Jemisin stops by St. George Library Center to celebrate the new book, hailed as "a glorious fantasy" by Neil Gaiman.
