Children of Virtue and Vengeance

Set in a stunning world of dark magic and danger, The Legacy of Orisha series by Tomi Adeyemi is a powerful YA fantasy inspired by the myth and folklore of West Africa. The first in the series, the #1 New York Times bestselling Children of Blood and Bone, was described by Buzzfeed as 'a luxe tale of magic, adventure and forbidden love'. The Legacy of Orisha tells the story of Zélie Adebola, a girl fighting to bring back magic and strike against the tyrannical monarchy, while struggling to control her own growing powers. Alongside her brother and a rebel princess, Zélie journeys to return magic to the oppressed Maji clans, whilst being hunted by an enemy prince.

Discover the astonishing powers of the Maji, from the water-wielding Tiders and the fire magic of the Burners, to the devastating powers of the Reapers, who control life and death in this action-packed trilogy, perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Game of Thrones.

The epic trilogy is currently being developed for film by Fox 2000. 'With sweeping, prescient themes of race and heritage, Children of Blood and Bone is poised to be the breakout YA hit of 2018' - Waterstones Loves
