In this groundbreaking West African-inspired fantasy, Tomi Adeyemi conjures a world where magic once thrived in the soil of Orïsha. Zélie Adebola remembers when Burners ignited flames, Tiders beckoned waves, and her Reaper mother summoned forth souls. But everything changed the night a ruthless king ordered the execution of all maji, leaving Zélie’s people without hope—and without their magic.
Now Zélie has one chance to restore what was stolen. Alongside a rogue princess, she must outwit the crown prince and navigate a dangerous landscape where snow leoponaires prowl and vengeful spirits lurk in the waters. The greatest danger, though, may be her own untamed powers and the unexpected feelings she develops for someone she should consider an enemy.
This deluxe paperback edition features gorgeous spray-painted and stenciled edges—a beautiful addition to any shelf. With five starred reviews and recognition as one of TIME‘s Top 100 Fantasy Books of All Time, this is the epic tale of resistance, magic, and reclaiming power that readers have been waiting for.
