This was my first time reading N.K. Jemisen, and I am hooked. The Killing Moon is a near-perfect fantasy ready: the world-building is original and thorough, the characters are complex, fully developed, and their roles/actions within the plot line up with the person they've been described as. There were a lot of surprises and suspense - I read this quickly and was completely immersed.
