An epic fantasy debut inspired by the Yoruba myths.
Everyone is blessed with agbara, the power of the sun. Everyone except her.
In Oru L'ore is the only one without agbara - the ability to harness power from the sun. And must conceal it from everyone. Including her best friend, Alawani.
But when the gods declare Alawani an l fa , he must be stripped of his power in a brutal trial likely to kill him. Unwilling to bear his death, L re vows to rescue him.
But in a desperate attempt to channel agbara an icy magic pours from her hands; a power she learns originated from a forbidden, secret land beyond the walls of Oru.
One where she and Alawani must now seek sanctuary and discover a secret that could bring the Kingdom to its knees . . .
