Transporting and vivid, this is a tale of adventure, magic, self-acceptance, and friendship that will stay with you.

When her best friend Dari goes missing, Zahrah must enter a mysterious forest and embrace her abilities to save him. From the author of the Binti trilogy and writer of Marvel’s Black Panther comics!
