Immerse yourself in the exciting continuation of the Orïsha saga with 'Children of Virtue and Vengeance' by Tomi Adeyemi. In this second installment, Zélie and Amari have managed to restore magic to Orïsha, but the newly awakened power has also reached nobles with magical ancestors. Now, Zélie faces the challenge of uniting her people in a world where the enemy is just as powerful. With civil war on the horizon, she must secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the wrath of the monarchy, or risk seeing Orïsha tear itself apart. A story of dark magic, danger, and the fight for freedom inspired by West Africa.
