Boys, Girls And Beasts
₦9,000.00Wars are not easy to forestall, nor are enemies—within or without—easy to destroy.
In a world stitched together by fragile treaties and bound by the mysterious power of a super crop, the United Nations of West Africa has lived in fragile promise of peace—until it is shattered in a maelstrom of blood and smoke. For Jaka, a boy on the brink of manhood in the quiet village of Malovo, life is torn apart in an instant. War crashes down, sweeping him into a shadowy underworld ruled by forces darker than his worst nightmares.
Captured and forced into the ranks of a brutal militia, Jaka becomes a pawn of the Zohrar, an ancient race whose warriors wield the power to channel primal beasts. With each passing day, the line between boy and beast blurs, his humanity slipping away, loyalty twisted into a deadly instinct that battles against faint memories of home, family, and a life that feels like a dream.
As Jaka climbs through the ranks, uncovering the terrifying secrets of the Zohrar, he discovers he is now part of a mission older than humanity itself, a mission to conquer Earth. But when he is called to destroy the very land he once called his own, Jaka faces a choice that could alter the fates of two worlds.
Boys, Girls & Beasts is a fierce journey through the heart of darkness, where identity and survival are locked in a brutal struggle, and the difference between hero and monster is blurred by shadow. Enter a world where myth rises to life, and innocence is the first casualty of war.
With Love, Miss Americanah
₦9,000.0017-year-old Enore Adesuwa doesn’t dive into things, she walks in carefully. So when she, her mother, and her sister move from Nigeria to America shortly after her father’s death, she wants to be extremely prepared before attending an American high school. Her cousin, Adrian, doesn’t have time to explain the ins and outs to her but, luckily, he recommends the perfect research tool: teen movies.
Still dealing with grief but armed with a set of rules of survival gathered from these movies (including the crucial rule of keeping a low profile), Enore is ready for her senior year. But when she meets Davi Santiago, it may be much harder than she thought to keep to her rules. Because not only is he super thoughtful (and okay, very good looking), he constantly encourages her to share her incredible singing talent. Enore prefers the background but it just might be time for her to take center stage, even in spite of her mother’s strict expectations.
Maybe it would be easier to follow all the rules, the ones Enore set for herself and the ones her mom imposes, but as every teen movie has taught her, a coming-of-age is nothing without a little rebellion. And with help from her crush, her sister, and some new friends who don’t quite fit the roles she expects them to play, Enore’s senior year might indeed be cinematic.
