I wolfed this one down. It reads like a poem. As an avid fan of mythology, this was a cross over I didn't know I needed. The mesh of Nigerian and Greek gods was exquisite. My favorite character, Modupe, what a woman- beautiful, strong, and committed to justice to the end. Just a beautiful work of art. 🀌🏾🀌🏾
