Excellent Prequel
I’m usually not a huge fan of prequels but this one grabbed my attention and kept it until the last second. It was So. Good. Zura’s narration was spot on and I cannot wait to listen to the rest of the series!

Amazing
As Queen, Amala spends her days taking care of her people. Until things changed. The narrator makes you feel as if you are a part of the story.
