Reviewer: Mark A.
A combination of magic, fantasy, compelling characters and fabulous twists and turns in the plot make this book a truly marvellous read. Amma Jill's gift for detail, her ability to paint such beautiful pictures of Africa's rich and vibrant landscape, aswell as create a cast of characters that we can really care about are a recipe for the best in fiction writing. I can't wait for the odyssey to continue!
