Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

Children of Blood and Bone (Legacy of Orïsha, #1)

by Tomi Adeyemi

Zélie Adebola remembers when the soil of Orïsha hummed with magic. Burners ignited flames, Tiders beckoned waves, and Zélie's Reaper mother summoned forth souls. But everything changed the night magic disappeared. Under the orders of a ruthless king, maji were killed, leaving Zélie without a mother and her people without hope.

I really enjoyed Children of Blood and Bone. The back story of the maji is fantastic and I absolutely loved Zelie. I can't wait to pick up the next book and see where this series goes next because this was such a tricky novel to put down and I really, really enjoyed it.
