From Kwame Mbalia and Prince Joel David Makonnen comes an
Afrofuturist adventure about a mythical Ethiopian empire. Sci-fi
and fantasy combine in this epic journey to the stars. Yared Heywat
lives an isolated life in Addis Prime -- a hardscrabble city with
rundown tech, lots of rules, and not much to do. His worrywart
Uncle Moti and bionic lioness Besa are his only family... and his
only friends. Often in trouble for his thrill-seeking antics and
smart mouth, those same qualities make Yared a star player of the
underground augmented reality game, The Hunt for Kaleb's Obelisk.
But when a change in the game rules prompts Yared to log in with
his real name, it triggers an attack that rocks the city. In the
chaos, Uncle Moti disappears. Suddenly, all the stories Yared's
uncle told him as a young boy are coming to life, of kingdoms in
the sky and city-razing monsters. And somehow Yared is at the
center of them. Together with Besa and the Ibis -- a game rival
turned reluctant ally -- Yared must search for his uncle... and
answers to his place in a forgotten, galaxy-spanning war.
