Product description
SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOVIE from Paramount Pictures, directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood of The Woman King and starring Amandla Stenberg, Viola Davis, Cynthia Erivo, Idris Elba, Lashana Lynch and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
Tomi Adeyemi conjures a stunning world of dark magic and danger in her West African-inspired fantasy Children of Blood and Bone, the first in the #1 New York Times-bestselling Legacy of Orisha series.
They killed my mother. They took our magic. They tried to bury us. Now we rise . . .
Zelie remembers when the soil of Orisha hummed with magic. When different clans ruled – Burners igniting flames, Tiders beckoning waves, and Zelie’s Reaper mother summoning forth souls.
But everything changed the night magic disappeared. Under the orders of a ruthless king, anyone with powers was targeted and killed, leaving Zelie without a mother and her people without hope.
Now Zelie has a chance to bring back magic to her people and strike against the monarchy. With the help of a rogue princess, Zelie must learn to harness her powers and outrun the crown prince, who is hell-bent on eradicating magic for good.
Danger lurks in Orisha, where strange creatures prowl, and vengeful spirits wait in the waters. Yet the greatest danger may be Zelie herself as she struggles to come to terms with the strength of her magic – and her growing feelings for an enemy . . .
‘A hugely enjoyable escapist story that makes you re-examine the world around you.’ – Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Deathless Girls
‘Three perspectives, complex world-building and superlative characterisation make this a must for fantasy fans.’ – Imogen Russell Williams, Metro
