I utterly adored Raybearer. This is a brilliant and beautifully written debut YA Fantasy novel. This book was a gripping, fast paced and I could not put it down! Raybearer was such an enjoyable read. I loved the characters, world building and magic system in this book.

Raybearer is a West-African inspired YA Fantasy. Tarisai is a young girl who was raised in isolation by her absent mother, known as The Lady. Tarisai is bound by a magical wish that she is compelled by her mother to obey... she must kill the Crown Prince.

When Tarisai is sent to the capital to compete against other children to become a member of the Crown Prince's council she discovers everything she has yearned for: love, family and friendship. But can you change what you are destined to do?

Jordan Ifueko's writing is so beautiful and poetic, I loved every second reading it. I can’t wait to read the sequel!
