Publisher's summary

A cosmic war reignites, and the fate of the orisha lies in the hands of an untried acolyte in this first entry of a new epic fantasy novella duology, for fans of N. K. Jemisin and Suyi Davies Okungbowa.

Ashâke is an acolyte in the temple of Ifa, yearning for the day she is made a priestess and sent out into the world to serve the orisha. But of all the acolytes, she is the only one the orisha refuse to speak to. For years, she has watched from the sidelines as peer after peer passes her by and ascends to full priesthood.

Desperate, Ashâke attempts to summon and trap an orisha—any orisha. Instead, she experiences a vision so terrible it draws the attention of a powerful enemy sect and thrusts Ashâke into the center of a centuries-old war that will shatter the very foundations of her world.

“Ogundiran’s story of an acolyte’s lost faith is electrifying, terrifying, and tender all at the same time. There’s more wonder and creativity packed into these pages than a book five times its length, and I’m already aching for the next chapter in Ashâke’s adventure.”—Mark Oshiro
