I have reread it for the 100th time since its release, and I still do not feel full... I very much recommend this book with all the gods in my village backing me!
Although I found relish in these authentic experiences, some essays were a sobering reminder of how much Nigerians have lost and the horrors it has gone through
I believe a good book is one (regardless of its genre or setting) you can resonate with through its characters and the writer is able to carry you along to its final destination.
Altogether, this is such a great book (and series, probably), and I look forward to reading the final release and more books in the series. You should too!
Religion takes front and center stage in this book. It was pretty interesting to explore how religious beliefs influence people's behaviors, mindsets, and actions.
The organic development of Jyosh and the skills progression is indicative of a well-thought-out plot, especially how training can be completed in a Tel'aran'rhoid-like place.
I think this is very reminiscent of many Nigerian children today (the torn from cultural roots part), which is sad because we are losing our cultural values fast, and they may be gone forever.
The characters in this book are numerous, and it's no surprise that my favorite character is Zachery Ezra Rawlins. He is a weird and queer guy, and I really enjoyed reading about his character development
