Shorefall is the second science fiction book in The Founders series by author Robert Jackson Bennett.
Magical Revolution remakes a city, an ancient evil awakened in a brilliant novel by Hugo-nominated author of the Foundryside and Divine Cities trilogy.
A few years ago, Sancia Grado would happily watch Tevanne burn. Now, she’s hoping to turn her city into something new. Something better. Along with her allies Orso, Gregor, and Berenice, she prepares to deal a fatal blow to Tevanne’s ruthless looting rulers and wrest power from them for the first time in decades.

But then comes a terrifying warning: Crasedes Magnus, the first of the legendary heroes, is about to be reborn. And if he does come back, Tevanne will only be the first place to feel his wrath.

Thousands of years ago, Crasedes was an ordinary man who did the impossible: Using scribble magic – the art of inspiring objects – he convinced the reality that he was something. That’s more than human. He strode across the world like a god for centuries, single-handedly dealing with justice and leveling empires, purging the world with fire and destruction – and even defeating death itself.

Like it or not, it was up to Sancia to stop him. But to stand a chance in the coming battle, she’ll have to call upon a god of her own – and open the door to a writing technology that can change what people mean. And no matter who wins, nothing will be the same.

Shorefall is the second book in the Founders series. This is a series that builds on the previous books and so you need to read them to know what’s going on. I actually re-read Foundryside right before switching to Shorefall because it’s one of my favorite books of 2018 and there’s so much detail I want to revisit it quickly.

Shorefall did not disappoint; Robert Jackson Bennett isn’t afraid to put his characters in really tough times and tough decisions. You really fear for them because he doesn’t mind killing people or making them make terrible sacrifices.
