Black Sands is the most popular independent title in the black
community nationwide and it is clear why. The story is about a
young boy named Ausar whose life goal is to rule Kemet. This leads
him on a quest across the war-torn lands of the ancient world. In
this world, a power struggle is being fought between the last
standing nations of men and ancient beings known only as gods who
rule over them. Our heroes will not only be struggling with ancient
deities, but also the intricate politics of society at the time.
Whether it's ancient Greece, Sumer, Canaan, Kush, or Egypt, readers
will deep dive in a culturally phenomenal tale. Kirkus says it is
"A sure bet for young readers who may be cultivating interests in
ancient history." It has been compared to young reader titles like
Avatar, manga like Naruto, and many more. Black Sands is a title
most black youth crave. It is no wonder it has been featured on
Publisher's Weekly, CBR, Atlanta Blackstar, endorsed by the
Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, and more.
War has broken out in the Mediterranean as Sparta invades mainland
Minoa. Ausar realizes his original mission no longer stands. He now
must rally his allies before they are crushed by the relentless
onslaught of the Spartan army. The young boy Menes has decided to
aid our heroes in the fight, but even with his aid, the enemy is
well prepared. After days of grueling battle, there is a moment of
peace, but that moment shatters when it is discovered that ancients
beasts are on the island! Ausar decides it would be best to
investigate so the team delves deep into the tunnels under the
mountain. After many obstacles, they stumble upon a glowing shard
that holds the answers to many mysteries behind the ancients and
Minoa.
