The Kishi by Antoine Bandele

5.0

I read this as part of my Indiecember challenge for the "non-western inspired" prompt and I loved it. There's so much love given to African culture and spirituality. Our protagonist Amana is likeable, even if he isn't 100% pure. There were multiple plot twists that I genuinely did not see coming. And while the ending wasn't exactly as sweet and concrete as some might have liked, it fit well with the themes and the character traits set up before. I would definitely recommend it.
