Summary

A gruesome war results in the old gods' departure from earth. The only remnants of their existence lie in two girls. Twins, separated at birth. Goddesses who grow up believing that they are human. Daughters of Nri explores their epic journey of self-discovery as they embark on a path back to one another.

Strong-willed Naala grows up seeking adventure in her quiet and small village. While the more reserved Sinai resides in the cold and political palace of Nri. Though miles apart, both girls share an indestructible bond: they share the same blood, the same face, and possess the same unspoken magic, thought to have vanished with the lost gods.

The twin girls were separated at birth, a price paid to ensure their survival from Eze Ochichiri, the man who rules the Kingdom of Nri. Both girls are tested in ways that awaken a mystical, formidable power deep within themselves. Eventually, their paths both lead back to the mighty Eze. But can they defeat the man who brought the gods themselves to their knees?

Enjoyable listen

Something different from what I would usually listen to. I was interested in the culture and time period and did a little extra reading around that. looking forward to the second one.

I loved it

...I didn't want it to end either that was my dispointment in the story. Also I hope they have the same audible narrator in the second.

Really lovet it!

I've been stuck on the last two chapters for several weeks now. Not because it is bad or boring but the opposit - and I didn't want it to end. Just found book 2 in the series on audible so I can finally finish this book and listen to 95% of the next one!

I really enjoyed Weruches narrating, her voice is very engaging.

Fascinating.

The story was fascinating and I enjoyed the to and fro between the two main characters. Their different stories were so other and yet combined well.

I enjoyed the voice of the narrator, I just felt it kept slipping into her natural British accent that was unusual for me as I hear Nigerian around me in South Africa. Others will probably not notice.

Good first book

Not my usual genre but I did enjoy this story. There's some confusing twists and turns but I got to the end and was excited for the next book.
I went straight onto 'Descendants of the First' as it was in the plus catalogue but that was not as good. Another great plot but didn't make sense in so many places, it left me disappointed.

Great little treasure

Very slow to start nevertheless I loved the story and wished it wouldn't end. I only wish audible could include pictures or rather symbols of clans that can be found on the books, I felt like it was the only thing I missed out on. The narration was amazing in my opinion. I can't wait for book two.
