Histoire
Zélie Adebola remembers when the soil of Orïsha hummed with magic. Burners ignited flames, Tiders beckoned waves, and Zélie’s Reaper mother summoned forth souls. But everything changed the night magic disappeared. Under the orders of a ruthless king, maji were killed, leaving Zélie without a mother and her people without hope. Now Zélie has one chance to bring back magic and strike against the monarchy. With the help of a rogue princess, Zélie must outwit and outrun the crown prince, who is hell-bent on eradicating magic for good.

Histoire
When Zélie seized the royal palace that fateful night, she thought her battles had come to an end. The monarchy had finally fallen. The maji had risen again. Zélie never expected to find herself locked in a cage and trapped on a foreign ship. Now warriors with iron skulls traffic her and her people across the seas, far from their homeland. Then everything changes when Zélie meets King Baldyr, her true captor, the ruler of the Skulls, and the man who has ravaged entire civilizations to find her.

Histoire
Sixteen-year-old Deka lives in fear and anticipation of the blood ceremony that will determine whether she will become a member of her village. Already different from everyone else because of her unnatural intuition, Deka prays for red blood so she can finally feel like she belongs. But on the day of the ceremony, her blood runs gold, the color of impurity–and Deka knows she will face a consequence worse than death.

Simi prayed to the gods, once. Now she serves them as Mami Wata—a mermaid—collecting the souls of those who die at sea and blessing their journeys back home. But when a living boy is thrown overboard, Simi goes against an ancient decree and does the unthinkable—she saves his life. And punishment awaits those who dare to defy the gods.

Yetu holds the memories for her people - water-dwelling descendants of pregnant African slave women thrown overboard by slave owners - who live idyllic lives in the deep. Their past, too traumatic to be remembered regularly, is forgotten by everyone, save one - the historian. This demanding role has been bestowed on Yetu. Yetu remembers for everyone, and the memories, painful and wonderful, traumatic and terrible and miraculous, are destroying her. And so, she flees to the surface, escaping the memories, the expectations, and the responsibilities.

Description
*The spectacular sequel to Audie Award Audiobook of the Year Children of Blood and Bone*
A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK
"Bahni Turpin exquisitely narrates the second book in this fantasy series, Legacy of Orïsha. Her steady pace and West African accent draw us into the story of Zélie, a Maji warrior, and Princess Amari—both of whom fight against a monarchy that threatens to destroy the people of Orïsha...A riveting audiobook!"—AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award winner
After battling the impossible, Zélie and Amari have finally succeeded in bringing magic back to the land of Orïsha. But the ritual was more powerful than they could’ve imagined, reigniting the powers of not only the maji, but of nobles with magic ancestry, too. Now, Zélie struggles to unite the maji in an Orïsha where the enemy is just as powerful as they are. But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath.
With civil war looming on the horizon, Zélie finds herself at a breaking point: She must discover a way to bring the kingdom together or watch as Orïsha tears itself apart.
Children of Virtue and Vengeance is the stunning sequel to Tomi Adeyemi's New York Times best-selling debut Children of Blood and Bone, the first audiobook in the Legacy of Orïsha trilogy.

Wonderful continuation
This was a great continuation from blood and bone though I feel the "dedication to those killed" has been lost now.
I love the Magic and wonder of the world the characters develop well and you see the progression without it being forced down your throat.
Adeyemi uses a number of phrases repeatedly that stand out as repetitious that I felt should have been changed to something else. But realistically that's a very minor grievance. I don't agree with some of the character choices but their reasoning makes sense for those characters.
The performance was great and had me in tears at times.
I was not a fan of the ending though. It sets up for the next book but in too much of a TV season finally kind of way.

While a good story…
I did not enjoy it as much as the first. Some aspects feel overplayed and redundant. The second half was stronger than the first in my opinion. Good voice acting; though some sound effects I could do without

Not as thrilling
I still thoroughly enjoyed the sequel, it just did not hit the same emotional chords as the first novel.

Disappointing
I loved the first book of the trilogy this much but this one felt histrionic, the characters grated in my nerves and I struggled just to finish. Not going to bother with the third.

Another great read!
This was exactly what I wanted/needed from the series. Tomi has written a great arc for Zélie and Amari, the only thing I didn’t love was the setup for the epilogue. It felt a little sudden and unearned, but I’m *very* excited about where it will head into book 3! As always, anything read by Bahni Turpin is amazing, evocative, and soothing, and this performance is no different. 12/10 would recommend!

Good series, average book, important characters.
Take-away: Not as good as the first, and drags on in parts, with some of the characters becoming a bit frustrating. Important inclusive addition to the YA fantasy genre with a generally engaging performance.
PROS: After the first - incredible - book, you'll want to find out more and this book provides that: more. Its important and interesting to have a different 'world' to enter, and I'm sure lots of young people will appreciate characters that are more representative of them. Some good plot points and the narrator does bring you into the story.
CONS: Found it hard to focus at times, and the first 60% of the book felt like it was spinning its tires, trying to reach the heights of the first book. Definitely frustrating elements, where you wondered what it contributed to the overall plot. The narrator felt ... tiring after a while, although generally enjoyable.
