By: Tolá Okogwu

Narrated by: Nneka Okoye

Onyeka and her superpowered friends race against time to save themselves and the Solari in this “thrilling…triumphant” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) second installment in the Onyeka middle grade series, perfect for fans of Rick Riordan, The Marvellers, and X-Men.

Onyeka and her superhero friends are on the run. Having exposed head teacher Dr. Dòyìnbó’s hidden agenda behind the Academy of the Sun, they’re living as fugitives, laying low as they try to figure out their next move. Despite their best efforts, Onyeka’s parents are still missing, and students at the Academy are still in danger.

But when their safe house is discovered, Onyeka must turn to the only allies they have left: a group of rebels called the rogues. Joining forces, will the groups defeat their shared nemesis, or is there a new danger on the horizon?

Captivating and adventure at every page turn

My sons and I thoroughly enjoyed following Oneyka and her friends through this entire journey! They wanted to listen at home, in the car, during dinner, and before bed. The narration is incredible and the story line had us all hooked from chapter 1 in book 1 to the very end! Highly recommended!

We thoroughly enjoyed this book.

The storyline is so captivating and the narration is superb. If you are looking for a good book to listen to with your children then please give this one a listen.
