Nahadoth.
The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisin
I always hesitate recommending books because I have a deep-seated fear that some haughty person will scoff, lift their chin, and state that I have awful taste in books.
Then again, I shamelessly eat Kraft Singles on their own, so I guess that means I have impeccable taste in cheese. And perhaps books.

Face like the moon, pale and somehow wavering. I could get the gist of his features, but none of it stuck in my mind beyond an impression of astonishing beauty. His long, long hair wafted around him like black smoke, its tendrils curling and moving of their own volition.

 Nubia Palacios is a professional artist building her portfolio of fantasy concept art, and she asked me if she could use the Inheritance Trilogy characters as the subjects of her latest work. I liked the result so much that I asked her if I could share it here. So here’s her depiction of Yeine!
Yeine Darr is an outcast from the barbarian north. But when her mother dies under mysterious circumstances, she is summoned to the majestic city of Sky. There, to her shock, Yeine is named an heiress to the king. But the throne of the Hundred Thousand Kingdoms is not easily won, and Yeine is thrust into a vicious power struggle with cousins she never knew she had. As she fights for her life, she draws ever closer to the secrets of her mother’s death and her family’s bloody history.
With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, Yeine will learn how perilous it can be when love and hate - and gods and mortals - are bound inseparably together.

Completely forgot I drew “The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms” fanart!  One of my favorite books for the worldbuilding and dynamics alike.
(The exquisitely rad author also, uh, may have retweeted it which I’m still internally screaming about.)

BOOKS READ IN 2018: The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisin
It is blasphemy to separate oneself from the earth and look down on it like a god. It is more than blasphemy; it is dangerous. We can never be gods, after all - but we can become something less than human with frightening ease.

Sieh from the excellent Inheritance Trilogy by NK Jemisin!
THE CUTEST OF GODLINGS. 10/10 WOULD SUPPORT IN HIS DESIRE TO KICK HIS DAD’S ASS IN AN ALLEYWAY.
I did a version of this in 2015 and I’m dizzy with my own sense of improvement.

Took a few screenshots from the movie Hanson and the Beast.   A twist on Beauty and the Beast, but with a bunch of side lore and interesting world building.   I liked the graphics and art design.  Cute film! – Watchable currently (full) on Youtube.
