“I enjoyed this novel very much. A story of love, tragedy, courage, and hope. A unique journey to another place and time that makes you feel as if you are in the village of Zentua, living with the people there. Excellent character development, with a true sense of where the story occurs. Very nicely done, Author Akpoebi Nora Ojeke.”
