Historia
When Zélie seized the royal palace that fateful night, she thought her battles had come to an end. The monarchy had finally fallen. The maji had risen again. Zélie never expected to find herself locked in a cage and trapped on a foreign ship. Now warriors with iron skulls traffic her and her people across the seas, far from their homeland. Then everything changes when Zélie meets King Baldyr, her true captor, the ruler of the Skulls, and the man who has ravaged entire civilizations to find her.

Phenomenal
Revisado: 08-28-24
From beginning to end this book had me on the edge of my seat. I felt the ancestors in this book. I could feel the powers of the ancestors plus through my veins as I listened. The first 2 installments were also amazing but the end to the trilogy was astounding! It gives me hope for the future of my people. If we work together nothing can defeat us! Ase’ 💛🌻

Touched my spirit
Revisado: 02-23-24
My people are from New Orleans, my grandparents left with the great migration to the north where I was born. From a small child I’ve always felt a yearning for New Orleans, for voodoo, for all things spiritual. The first time I entered the city of New Orleans I felt like I was being hugged by an old long lost friend or family member. I’ve visited frequent ever since. I began to study voodoo and the Orishas a few years ago and this series has given me so much inspiration and spiritual insight. It’s so well written and read I could vividly see every scene. Thank you for this series. My spirit feels closer to my ancestors now. Thank you

I loved this book from beginning to end. I couldn’t stop listening. My family is originally from New Orleans my grandparents moved north during the great migration. I was drawn to New Orleans my entire life and when I finally made it there I took a deep breath and knew I was home. Thank you for writing this book, showing that we are magic, it’s in our blood, we just have to be open to receive it

Bear it or perish yourself. Those are the words Helen Jean hears that fateful night in her cousin’s outhouse that change the trajectory of her life. Spanning decades, Perish tracks the choices Helen Jean—the matriarch of the Turner family—makes and the way those choices have rippled across generations, from her children to her grandchildren and beyond. This family’s “reunion” unearths long-kept secrets and forces each member to ask themselves important questions about who is deserving of forgiveness and who bears the cross of blame.

The truth will set you free
Revisado: 02-17-23
This book isn’t just a book it’s a telling of the generational cures that many families suffer from, the secrets, the pain, the trauma in this book is all so real. I gasped, I cried, my heart broke over and over while listening to this book, but I also grew, I have a better understanding of how lies and secrets are the undoing of many & how the truth will truly set you free. A must read. BRAVO 👏🏽
