Ada Goth is die enigste kind van Lord Goth. Hulle woon saam in die reusagtige Ghastly-Gorm Hall. Lord Goth glo dat kinders gehoor maar nie gesien mag word nie, en laat Ada groot lomp stewels dra sodat hy haar altyd kan hoor wanneer sy naderkom. Dit maak dir vir haar moeilik om vriende te maak en sy is eintlik baie eensaam. Een dag kom Emily en William Cabbage by hulle bly, en saam met ’n spookagtige muis met die naam Ishmael begin hulle om agter die kap van die byl te kom van dit wat die geheimsinnige opsigter Maltravers probeer konkel. Ada en haar vriende moet saamwerk om ’n stokkie voor sy nare planne te steek voordat dit te laat is!

After battling the impossible, Zélie and Amari have finally succeeded in bringing magic back to the land of Orïsha. But the ritual was more powerful than they could've imagined, reigniting the powers of not only the maji, but of nobles with magic ancestry, too.

Now, Zélie struggles to unite the maji in an Orïsha where the enemy is just as powerful as they are. But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath.

With civil war looming on the horizon, Zélie finds herself at a breaking point: she must discover a way to bring the kingdom together or watch as Orïsha tears itself apart.

Children of Virtue and Vengeance is the stunning sequel to Tomi Adeyemi's New York Times-bestselling debut Children of Blood and Bone, the first book in the Legacy of Orïsha trilogy.

The precarious equilibrium among the four Londons has reached its breaking point. Once brimming with the red vivacity of magic, darkness casts a shadow over the Maresh Empire, leaving a space for another London to rise. Kell-once assumed to be the last surviving Antari-begins to waver under the pressure of competing loyalties. Lila Bard, once a commonplace-but never common-thief, has survived and flourished through a series of magical trials. But now she must learn to control the magic, before it bleeds her dry. Meanwhile, the disgraced Captain Alucard Emery and the Night Spire crew are attempting a race against time to acquire the impossible, as an ancient enemy returns to claim a crown and a fallen hero is desperate to save a decaying world...
