They killed my mother. They took our magic. They tried to bury us. Now we rise. Zélie Adebola remembers when the soil of Orïsha hummed with magic. Burners ignited flames, Tiders beckoned waves, and Zélie's Reaper mother summoned forth souls. But everything changed the night magic disappeared. Under the orders of a ruthless king, maji were killed, leaving Zélie without a mother and her people without hope. Now Zélie has one chance to bring back magic and strike against the monarchy. With the help of a rogue princess, Zélie must outwit and outrun the crown prince, who is hell-bent on eradicating magic for good.

    Awesome Read!

    Saw this book in Barnes and Nobles one day and read a little of its contents. Immediately I was intrigued. Saw this same book here on eBay and at a great value. Couldn’t pass it up. A must read if anyone is slightly interested in fantasy with that dash of truth of how the Earth was once governed by the wisdom of the indigenous matriarchal serpent beings.

  • OUTSTANDING!! Soon to be a movie !!

    The author was a 23 year old Harvard graduate at time of publication! Her intent was to point out authoritarian discrimination! The book tells of how one girl fights for justice.

  • Black panther meets Avatar The Last Air Bender!!

    A clever young adult fantasy that sets a new standard for the genre. I loved how this book took on various hard subjects especially colorism which I can’t ever remember a young adult book tackling. Very excited for the sequel! A classic in the making.
