Thanks to Books Forward PR for the free advance copy of this book.

 - THE LIES OF THE AJUNGO is less than 100 pages, but in those pages is a story that you won't forget soon.
- The book reads like a folktale and is full of compelling characters, edge of your seat action and deep emotion.
- It looks like this might be the first book in a series, and I really hope so. I would love to see more exploration of this world and its magic system.
