"A thrilling and fantastical world inspired by West African mythology! You will be BEGGING for more at the end of this. Ama Ofosua Lieb is an author to watch!
“Akoma, a 17-year-old who hates magic, must make the choice between following trickster Anansi’s request or possibly losing her comatose father. Steeped in magic and Ghanaian mythology, this immersive futuristic fantasy full of high stakes adventure, lively character banter, and mysterious intentions had me reeling for more.”
“Goldenborn is the kind of sci-fi/fantasy mashup I didn't know I was looking for. Akoma lives in a near-future AfricaTown in San Francisco and works with a secret law enforcement division to stop crimes where magic may be involved. She just wants to find out what really happened to put her father in a coma, and a sting gone wrong leads her to a mysterious stranger who may have the answers. Goldenborn is filled with lush, beautiful worldbuilding, African mythology, and an Afrofuturist twist. An outstanding debut!”
