Birth of a Dynasty
by Chinaza Bado
challenging
hopeful
mysterious
tense
medium-paced
I have been entranced by this story from beginning to end. Though we're thrust into action from the get-go and we're quickly introduced to a lot of characters and families, I never once felt lost or confused.
Chinaza Bado managed to craft an intricate story by blending a rich fantastical world, political intrigue, prophecies, and a diversified cast of characters. The different POVs allow us to get a glimpse into each player's machination in this game for power and vengeance. While some are trying to stop the prophecy from ever happening, fate has not said its last word, and forces are working in the background to bring the two people concerned by this foretelling together.
Birth of a Dynasty is a great start to this trilogy who promises to be filled with pain, horrors, schemes and vengeance, but also hope for a better future.
Thank you to NetGalley and Avon and Harper Voyager for the eARC!
