The World We Make N. K. Jemisin

Three-time Hugo Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author N. K. Jemisin crafts "a glorious fantasy" (Neil Gaiman) -- a story of culture, identity, magic, and myths in contemporary New York City, that began with The City We Became.
 Every great city has a soul. A human avatar that embodies their city's heart and wields its magic. New York? She's got six.

But all is not well in the city that never sleeps. A mysterious Woman in White wants to destroy it all. Wielding powers of space, time, and reality, she's physically weaponized all of New York's greatest threats: gentrification, xenophobia, and "law and order".  In order to defeat her, the avatars will have to join together with the other Great Cities of the world in order to bring her down and prevent their universe from complete destruction.
