Forged by Blood meets Children of Blood and Bone in this thrilling fantasy debut inspired by West African mythology

In the kingdom of Ile-Ife, General Mosebolatan is a warrior of unmatched valour. But when she refuses the king’s marriage proposal, she is forced into her most dangerous mission yet.

Sent into the treacherous Anjonu forest, Mosebolatan must track down the fierce shape-shifting Egbere and recover the sacred artifact they have stolen. But the forest is home to more than just the Egbere, and soon she will discover that, here, victory comes at a cost…

Caught up in an ages-old battle for celestial power, Mosebolatan must make a choice: embrace a destiny she never sought, or risk the fate of all she holds dear.
