Moon Witch, Spider King : Dark Star Trilogy 2 by Marlon James

THE SECOND NOVEL IN THE REVOLUTIONARY DARK STAR TRILOGY IS HERE! Booker Prize-winner Marlon James once again draws on a rich tradition of African mythology and fantasy to imagine a mythic world, a lost child, a 177-year-old witch, and a mystery with many answers. *Perfect for fans of Pratchett, George R. R. Martin, and Octavia Butler. Even more gripping and inventive than its predecessor like Tolkien on ayahuasca' ObserverPart adventure, part chronicle of an indomitable woman - the witch Sogolon - who bows to no man, this is an unforgettable exploration of power, personality, and the places where they overlap, set in a world at once ancient and startlingly modern.

In the words of Neil Gaiman, James has created a fantasy world as well-realized as anything Tolkien made, with language as powerful as Angela Carter's.
