Adia Kelbara and the Dark Between

De: Isi Hendrix

The thrilling finale to the fast-paced, witty, and bighearted debut Afrofantasy trilogy that began with Adia Kelbara and the Circle of Shamans, about a twelve-year-old apprentice in the kitchens at the prestigious Academy of Shamans who must ally with a snarky goddess and a knife-wielding warrior to save her kingdom.

Perfect for fans of Amari and the Night Brothers and The School for Good and Evil!

Power-hungry god Olark has been banished to the realm of the dead…but Adia Kelbara’s troubles are far from over.

When a boy with godlike powers escapes a hidden prison and appears in Zaria, Adia’s world begins to unravel...literally. The powers he carries were stolen from Adia’s mentor, the Alusi Ginikawa, and now the once-powerful goddess is fading from existence.

In an effort to save Gini, Adia uncovers a secret project turning humans into vessels for divine power and makes a desperate deal with the dark shamanic mastermind behind the experiments—her own Aunt Ife. But when her choice inadvertently sends her best friend, the ancient warrior girl Thyme, back to the past, it causes a series of timeline-altering events that results in Olark being free once more—and stronger than ever.

To set things right, Adia must journey to the mythical land of Imo Mmiri and harness the power of a god. But claiming this power means confronting the same corruption that once destroyed her family—and risking her friends' lives and her own soul to mend a fractured world.
