The Uzo Chronicles: Volume One
Uzo and the Hidden Elders & Uzo and the Forest Between Worlds
Deep in a village shaped by ancestral spirits, forbidden forests, and the wisdom of elders who speak in riddles, a boy named Uzo is about to discover that the world he knows is only the surface of something far older and far stranger.
Uzo and the Hidden Elders & Uzo and the Forest Between Worlds
Deep in a village shaped by ancestral spirits, forbidden forests, and the wisdom of elders who speak in riddles, a boy named Uzo is about to discover that the world he knows is only the surface of something far older and far stranger.
Raised without his mother, and shadowed by a stepmother whose kindness hides a darker motive, Uzo finds his truest teacher in Egesi - an old woman feared by the village, dismissed by some as mad, but who alone seems to carry the memory of forgotten worlds. Through her stories of Leruani, a hidden land untouched by evil, and Idume, the mysterious stranger who walked among them, Uzo begins to understand that he is tied to something greater than his village of Umudiokpa.
As Uzo grows from a listening boy into a young man walking his own path, he is drawn deeper into the world of the Ezemmuo, the whispers of ancestors, hunts bound by oath, trials among sacred trees, and a quest for the Ikenga that will test everything he has learned. Rooted firmly in Igbo cosmology, oral tradition, and the rhythms of pre-colonial village life, this is a coming-of-age tale where myth, spirit, and the everyday world are never far apart.
This omnibus edition brings together the first two books in the series - Uzo and the Hidden Elders and Uzo and the Forest Between Worlds - previously published separately, now presented as one complete volume for readers who want Uzo's full early journey in a single sitting.
Perfect for readers of African mythology, folklore-inspired fantasy, and coming-of-age stories rooted in culture and spirit.
