Description
An elite female fighter and her found family of sisters battle gods and monsters for their existence in this captivating West African-inspired young adult fantasy sequel to Daughters of Oduma, perfect for fans of The Gilded Ones and Legendborn.
Eat. Dance. Fight for your life.
The girls in the Mud Fam are used to fighting hard-it's the only way to win in their elite, all-female sport of Bowing. Thanks to her legendary performance at the last tournament, Dirt has helped their ranks swell with a bevy of new recruits. She has finally achieved her lifelong dream of restoring glory to the Mud Fam, and she's more than ready to win the upcoming tournament. But everything changes when a man washes up on shore.
There are no adults on the Isle, not since the long-ago days when the gods walked the earth. Yet here is a mysterious man who calls himself Mister Odo and claims to come from the land of the gods. He declares a tournament to find the best Bower. Though wary of the secretive Mister Odo, Dirt is prepared to battle as a proud, fat Bower should-that is, until the competitors are attacked by monsters. The only thing that can save the girls is the gods-given magic that Dirt can channel...and even that might not be enough.
