Magic can burn, turn tides, light the darkness and bring back the dead. But magic is gone. So one girl must bring it back in the gripping first title in Tomi Adeyemi's No. 1 New York Times-bestselling Legacy of Orïsha trilogy.
We're in an entirely other culture - a Nigeria-inspired kingdom of magic and mythology - but are utterly at home. The first chapter, alone, is so rich in detail, action, scene and character. And wonderful prose.
