About the book: 2019 / Once upon a time, Orisha was a country where people endowed with magic lived happily. The gods granted each of the ten clans the ability to control the forces of nature. Some magicians ruled over water, others over fire. There were also those who could read minds, and even those who could see the future! They used their talents to take care of the Orishans and were revered by the people. But one night the magic disappeared... By order of the cruel King Saran, many sorcerers were killed. So Zelie Adebola lost her mother, and the inhabitants of Orisha lost hope. Eleven years later, Zelie had a chance to overthrow the tyranny of cruel monarchs and revive magic. But to do this, she must enter into a confrontation with Prince Inan, who keeps the Orishans at bay. Danger lurks at every turn: ferocious leopaners prowl the forests, vengeful spirits wait in the dark waters, the palace guards are hunting. But what if the biggest danger is Zelie herself, trying to take control of the ancient power that has awakened in her?.
