LOCUS AWARD WINNER • In the second book of the Nsibidi Scripts series, Sunny is beginning to realize her visions are not a trauma response. She has seen the end of the world and now Sunny must stop it.
“The most imaginative, gripping, enchanting fantasy novels I have ever read!”—Laurie Halse Anderson, New York Times bestselling author of Speak
“Seamlessly weaves inventive juju with contemporary Nigerian culture and history.”—School Library Journal, starred review
Sunny Nwazue, an American-born girl Nigerian girl, was inducted into the secret Leopard Society almost two years ago. Although she is still developing her magical powers, Sunny and her Leopard society friends, Or’u, Chichi, and Sasha, have already defeated a powerful Leopard criminal and faced a terrifying masquerade, Ekwensu. Sunny is not wrong to hope that her visions of the world ending are just a traumatic aftermath. Unfortunately, they are real.
Stronger and feistier, Sunny knows that she must now confront her destiny. She has been chosen to lead a dangerous mission to avert an apocalypse brought about by Ekwensu. With the support of her friends and of her spirit face, Anyanwu, Sunny will travel through worlds both visible and invisible to fight a climactic battle to save humanity.
