Last Gate of the Emperor by Kwame Mbalia

5.0

Just, wow... I knew I would love it. Kwame Mbalia has such a way with words that you can't help but love his stories! But I bought this solely because of his name without knowing anything about the story. Totally worth it!

So since I'm not going to be able to fangirl without spoilers, I'm just going to mention something that Prince Joel Makonnen talks about after the story. He says, "I also hope that as you read Last Gate, you’ll be inspired to discover your own history, no matter who you are or where you’re from." Coincidentally, I recently started figuring out my family tree (looking forward to the results from the DNA test) and has someone who is half-adopted, I'm really curious where the biological half that I don't know about is rooted and comes from.
