'Thrilling, tautly-written, pulls you right in and keeps you there! Plus: bonus trickster god!' Louie Stowell, author of Loki
'A fast-paced, first-class debut with action scenes that will leave you breathless and characters who will have you cheering. I loved it!' A.F. Steadman, author of the Skandar series
Discover a fierce and fun story of one boy versus six gods, from a magical new voice in children's fiction...
Kayode dreams of eating the forbidden fruit of the Orishas, so he can gain the power of the gods and stop them terrorizing his people. So when a fruit mysteriously appears in his path after the Orishas snatch his sister, he leaps on it.
Surging with new and difficult-to-control powers, he joins forces with a shapeshifting trickster god and a vengeful princess to save his sister and put an end to the mighty Orishas. But each has more fearful powers than the last - and Kayode's stolen half-god strength won't last for ever...

As a small business, we believe it is our responsibility to always have sustainability in mind.
The joy of being small is that every decision is our own to make - what materials go into our products, what packaging we choose, what businesses we buy from and who we choose to stock.
We can’t afford a lot of the volume discounts that mean these choices don’t impact us financially, but this is part of why we price ourselves the way we do, as it’s the right thing to do.
