Overview
Step into the West African-inspired world of Orïsha with this stunning two-book collection from Tomi Adeyemi's bestselling Legacy of Orïsha series. Following Zélie Adebola's fight to restore magic and justice to her kingdom, these two paperbacks combine breathtaking action, rich mythology, and powerful themes of oppression and resilience. Perfect for fans of epic fantasy and coming-of-age adventure, this set is an essential addition to any young adult reader's bookshelf, gift collection, or school library.
About the Books
Children of Blood and Bone introduces Zélie, who remembers when magic thrummed through the soil of Orïsha, before a ruthless king ordered every maji hunted down and killed, taking her mother and her people's hope with it. Now Zélie has one chance to bring magic back and strike against the monarchy - with the help of a rogue princess, and against a crown prince determined to erase magic forever, she must learn to master her powers while navigating danger, dark creatures, and her own growing feelings for an enemy.
Children of Virtue and Vengeance picks up after Zélie and Amari succeed in reawakening magic, only to discover the ritual was far more powerful than they anticipated, reigniting the powers of maji and magic-blooded nobles alike. As civil war looms and old enemies prove just as formidable as before, Zélie must find a way to unite her divided kingdom before Orïsha tears itself apart. Together, these two instalments chart an unforgettable journey of rebellion, identity, and self-discovery set against a richly imagined fantasy backdrop rooted in West African culture and Yoruba mythology.
