Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Tiwa is a blacksmith in the Abule-Deep - the district suspended in the shadow of New Oyo, a floating megacity powered by divine Asu1eb9 and built on the labour of people it refuses to acknowledge. She has spent her life making prosthetic limbs from salvaged metal, repairing what falls from above, and never asking for anything in return. She is very good at not wanting things.Prince Dayo is the Vessel of Shango - the living conduit of the thunder god's power, unable to touch another person without risking their life, surrounded by people who love him in theory and fear him in practice. When his royal sky-chariot crashes into the lagoon at the edge of the Below, it is Tiwa who catches him. It is the only time in his life someone has done so without flinching.While Dayo recovers in her hidden forge, they begin to discover what his lightning and her iron can do together: something the Orishas have not seen in a thousand years. Something that might be able to heal the city's failing heart - the divine battery that has secretly been draining the life-force of the Below for centuries, fuelling the sky-palaces above on the suffering of the people below.The city is dying. The truth is buried in its walls. And the only way to rebuild New Oyo is to bring the sky down to earth - permanently.The Bronze As?` is an Afro-Futurist Yoruba romance of class, power, and the alchemy of two people whose gifts were always meant to find each other - a novel about what is built when someone finally teaches the fire how to be gentle.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - She was sent to negotiate a treaty. She did not expect to negotiate her heart.Adunni ?ládap?` has spent her life being useful - as the iron-bound Captain of ?kùn Quarter, as the only living practitioner of the ààr?-?kàn ceremony, as the woman her city sends when the situation requires someone who will not flinch. When the Ivory Throne of the Aro Confederacy summons Adó-Èkìtì to renew a forty-year peace treaty or lose its protected status, she is the obvious choice. She walks in knowing it is a trap. She walks in anyway.Folarin Aro has been building something since he was seven years old and his father disappeared inside the very court he now controls. He has spent twenty-four years converting grief into strategy, absence into ambition, a dead man's legacy into a plan he has not yet named. When he summons the iron-bound woman from the Seven Groves, he believes he is making a political calculation. He is not wrong. He is also not entirely right.What they find in the walls of the Ivory Throne will rewrite forty years of history. What they find in each other is harder to file away.Between Two Crowns is a Yoruba-inspired political romance set in a richly imagined secondary world - a novel about the negotiation of power, the inheritance of grief, the patience of iron, and two people who are each other's most dangerous and most necessary discovery.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Sacred Earth: Poems on Ancestry, Origin, and the Body as Homeland Your skin is not a burden. It is an inheritance. The Sacred Earth is a collection of ninety poems that return again and again to a single, grounding truth: the body is a living archive of everything that came before it. Skin as earth. Memory as inheritance. The self as landscape shaped by ancestors who walked, survived, and refused to disappear. Moving through images of red clay, baobab trees, river water, indigo dye, and drumbeat, this collection traces themes of ancestry, African identity, diaspora, resilience, and belonging - not as abstractions, but as things carried in the body itself. Each poem is short, meditative, and built to be read slowly: one at a time, like a small prayer. Written for anyone seeking language for the quiet pride of origin, The Sacred Earth is a reminder that where you come from is not a shadow to escape, but ground to stand on. This edition includes a full table of contents and space at the back for the reader's own reflections and lines. This item is printed on demand.
