About this listen

Discover the gripping sequel to Namina Forna's New York Times best-selling YA fantasy, The Gilded Ones. Set in an ancient West African-inspired world, this series is perfect for fans of Children of Blood and Bone and Black Panther.

It's been six months since Deka freed the goddesses in the ancient kingdom of Otera and discovered who she really is...but war is waging across the kingdom, and the real battle has only just begun. For there is a dark force growing in Otera—a merciless power that Deka and her army must stop.

Yet hidden secrets threaten to destroy everything Deka has known. And with her own gifts changing, Deka must discover if she holds the key to saving Otera...or if she might be its greatest threat.

The Merciless Ones is the second, thrilling installment of the epic fantasy series in which a young heroine fights against a world that would dare tame her.

Good

A great story read at a good pace.

I didn’t enjoy the performance though. Imani Jade Powers changed the pronunciation of a lot of the names from the first book. As well as there being an echo in some spots of the recording.
