Overview

In a land bled dry by corruption, a forgotten magic stirs. Ukoto is a nation choking on its own despair. The air is thick with the poison of gas flares, the rivers run black with oil, and the streets echo with the violence of those who sell fear for power. A ruthless general, a foreign corporation, and a fanatical insurgent have carved up the country, their greed sustained by dark occult forces and a brutal machinery of oppression. The people, broken by decades of suffering, have been anaesthetized by lies and the slow, constant theft of their spirit. But the land itself remembers. When a blind old seer, the last keeper of Ukoto's true history, is targeted by the powers that be, her quiet defiance ignites a spark. Her grandson, Tobe, fueled by a rage as deep as the oil wells that destroyed his home, finds himself the unlikely leader of a revolution. Alongside a disillusioned soldier, a rogue hacker, and a defector from the insurgency, he must embark on a perilous journey. Their battle will be fought not just with bullets, but with truth. Not just in the streets, but in the human heart. And their greatest weapon will be the ancient, slumbering magic of the land itself-a power that demands a terrible price for its awakening. From the poisoned creeks of the Delta to the carnage of the desert, and into the corrupt heart of the capital, this is an epic tale of resistance that asks a searing question: When a nation is built on a lie, what would you sacrifice to remember the truth? For fans of N.K. Jemisin's The Broken Earth trilogy and Marlon James's Black Leopard, Red Wolf, comes a powerful African futurist epic-a devastatingly beautiful and unflinchingly brutal story of redemption, the cost of hope, and the unbreakable bond between a people and their land.
