Free Audiobook : Children of Blood and Bone, by Tomi Adeyemi

What happens when a kingdom’s magic gets locked away, leaving only whispers behind? In "Children of Blood and Bone," Tomi Adeyemi crafts Orïsha, a West African-inspired world where Zélie Adebola steps up after a twist of luck cracks her life wide open. She’s driven by a need to fix what’s broken, and it’s a journey that’s as personal as it is epic.

She’s not going it alone; her brother and a royal outcast join her, cutting through a landscape of wild plains and ancient secrets. Adeyemi’s got a way of making every moment pop, from the thud of boots on dirt to the weight of a promise kept. It’s a story that simmers with defiance and the ache of what’s been taken, pulling you along for the fight.

Bahni Turpin’s narration makes this audiobook feel alive, giving Zélie a spirit that’s tough yet tender. It’s the kind of tale that sneaks up on you, then grabs hold, leaving you curious about whether one voice can shout loud enough to wake a sleeping world. This is a listen that lingers, daring you to believe in the unseen.
