Of Blood and Lightning

di Micki Janae (Autore)

Three Rooms Press, 2024

In a small, idyllic town in North Dakota, 17-year-old Ophelia Johnson and five other teens inherit the powers of the ancient gods—Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Artemis, Apollo, and Ares—and embark on a mission from the Vessel of Destiny to find the missing Fates, restore the Codex, and save the ancient world. Still grieving the recent and mysterious death of her father, Ophelia begins to unravel the secrets woven into her family’s history as she and her friends plunge into the quest of a lifetime. Armed only with powers they don’t totally understand, Ophelia, Roman, Cassius, Olivia, Alessia, and Baxter are soon immersed in a mythical chess match upon which rests the fate of the universe. As they journey into a world of blood pacts and war, the diverse teens find more than they bargained for, and Ophelia discovers a family tie that might mean the ensuing chaos and destruction is her fault. Of Blood and Lightning is a contemporary YA fantasy (age 14-18) with a gripping and fresh twist on Greek mythology as the ancient pantheon of gods inhabit an ensemble of diverse teenaged characters. Debut author Micki Janae is a writer on a mission. Tired of growing up with sparse representation of young Black women in fantasy, Janae has taken matters into her own hands to craft a compelling novel full of intricate world-building, electrifying storytelling, and compelling diverse characters. Of Blood and Lightning will appeal to lovers of Rick Riordan, Alexandria Bracken, and Tracy Deonn.
