About this listen
From city streets where secrets are bartered for gold to forests teeming with fabled beasts, Suyi Davies Okungbowa's sweeping epic of forgotten magic and violent conquests continues in this richly drawn fantasy inspired by the pre-colonial empires of West Africa.
There is no peace in the season of the Red Emperor.
Traumatized by their escape from Bassa, Lilong and Danso have found safety in a vagabond colony on the edge of the emperor’s control. But time is running out on their refuge. A new bounty makes every person a threat, and whispers of magic have roused those eager for their own power.
Lilong is determined to return the Diwi—the ibor heirloom—to her people. It’s the only way to keep it safe from Esheme’s insatiable desire. The journey home will be long, filled with twists and treachery, unexpected allies and fabled enemies.
But surviving the journey is the least of their problems.
Something ancient and uncontrollable awakens. Trouble heads for Bassa, and the continent of Oon will need more than ibor to fix what's coming.
Praise for The Nameless Republic:
"A thrilling, fantastical adventure that introduces a beguiling new world . . . and then rips apart everything you think you know."—S. A. Chakraborty
"An original and fascinating epic fantasy full of bold characters, bloody action, and brutal politics.”―James Islington

For Zuberi, Uzochi, and Lencho, Nubia is a mystery. Before they were born, a massive storm destroyed their ancestral homeland, forcing their families to flee across the ocean to New York City. Nubia, a utopic island nation off the coast of West Africa, was no more, and their parents’ sorrow was too deep for them to share much of their history beyond the folklore. But New York, ravaged by climate change and class division, is far from a safe haven for refugees, and Nubians live as outcasts.

Now, when Aelfric—keeper of the cursed sword Spellbreaker—learns of a new and terrifying threat, he seeks the nine heroes once again. But they are wandering adventurers no longer.

Even if they used to be his friends.

Story
Timothy Walter Bolton - better known as Timmy - has spent most of his life as a necromancer. When he isn't terrorising his enemies, he's plotting inside his castle, which is built on top of lightless chasms filled with nameless horrors and beings of a generally malevolent and megalomaniacal nature. But after one of his latest creations, a zombie hydra-dragon-bear, tries to eat him, he decides that maybe it's time to find a new, less dangerous, career.

A Woman of Endurance, set in nineteenth-century Puerto Rican plantation society, follows Pola, a deeply spiritual African woman who is captured and later sold for the purpose of breeding future slaves. The resulting babies are taken from her as soon as they are born. Pola loses the faith that has guided her and becomes embittered and defensive. The dehumanizing violence of her life almost destroys her. But this is not a novel of defeat but rather one of survival, regeneration, and reclamation of common humanity.

So begins Kaikeyi’s story. The only daughter of the kingdom of Kekaya, she is raised on legends of the gods: how they churned the vast ocean to obtain the nectar of immortality, how they vanquish evil and ensure the land of Bharat prospers, and how they offer powerful boons to the devout and the wise. Yet she watches as her father unceremoniously banishes her mother, listens as her own worth is reduced to how great a marriage alliance she can secure. And when she calls upon the gods for help, they never seem to hear.

The red Emperor is a great villian. she has no conscience and thinks leadership and faer mean the same thing. she's the first child murderer I've seen revel in her wrong doing. she's written so well that I always enjoy seeing what new travesty she'll do that will create more enemies.
Overall I loved this book and hope the 3rd installment cones sooner rather than later.

Interesting Universe, Dry Narrator

characterizations of the people was good, the narration of the the thoughts, asides and action narration ranged from monotoned to mis-pronunciation with perfect diction that robbed even the bloodiest scenes of any emotional weight. I just wanted to be done with it. I didn't care which, if any, died ... I didn't care what revelations were made (because none had the real wisdom to see the damage they had or would do) ... and I didn't care whether or not they achieved their selfish, poorly reasoned goals. There must be at least one more book coming, but ... I just don't have the energy to care what happens to the characters because, well ... so many were unreasonably mean without self-reflection or ultimate consequence against their person for their part in the chaos, that I just couldn't root for any of them: sort of a passive-aggressive, African version of Game of Thrones, but with no Arya or Tyrion to bring clarity and strength. Listening to people not give their full reasoning for their position, having that lack of knowledge affect another's decision making, people unrepentant unless or until someone died for their misguided deeds... it's too frustrating to read as an escape from the frustrations of seeing real people be self-unaware. I hope others enjoy the third book, but ... I won't be one of them: i have no emotional connection to the characters and their lying, passive aggressive behavior as they trapse through overly describe flora and fauna. Meh.
I just wanted it to be over
