Overview

A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK

"Meet Tomi Adeyemi--the new J.K. Rowling. (Yep, she's that good)." --Entertainment Weekly

After battling the impossible, Zélie and Amari have finally succeeded in bringing magic back to the land of Orïsha. But the ritual was more powerful than they could've imagined, reigniting the powers of not only the maji, but of nobles with magic ancestry, too.

Now, Zélie struggles to unite the maji in an Orïsha where the enemy is just as powerful as they are. But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath.

With civil war looming on the horizon, Zélie finds herself at a breaking point: she must discover a way to bring the kingdom together or watch as Orïsha tears itself apart.

Children of Virtue and Vengeance is the stunning sequel to Tomi Adeyemi's New York Times-bestselling debut Children of Blood and Bone, the first book in the Legacy of Orïsha trilogy.

Praise for Children of Blood and Bone:

"Poses thought-provoking questions about race, class and authority that hold up a warning mirror to our sharply divided society." -The New York Times

  • I hope the final book in this series is better. #SummerReading

    Sarah U. - 6 years 3 months ago

    What the actual f**k? One star for having amazing cover art. Another star for the chunk of 100 or so pages near the end that FINALLY got me excited and re-invested in the story. And no more stars for one of the most UNSATISFYING ENDING EVERRRR! I'm just... I'm just disappointed. I need to go to sleep about it and see how I feel in the morning. Bleh. #SummerReading

  • Better Than the First

    DANA Z. - 6 years 4 months ago

    I liked this book more than the first, but it was still slow and a struggle to get through. You really have to make sure you are able to keep up with all the characters because the amount nearly doubles in this book. I still liked the alternating points of view and how that let us get more background information on the characters. I would recommend this book to those that liked the first or didn't so much and want to give the second book a shot.

  • haven't cried so hard or laughed while reading in so long
