The epic debut YA fantasy from an incredible new talent??perfect for fans of Tomi Adeyemi and Sabaa Tahir

Nothing is more important than loyalty. But what if you've sworn to protect the one you were born to destroy?

Tarisai has always longed for the warmth of a family. She was raised in isolation by a mysterious, often absent mother known only as The Lady. The Lady sends her to the capital of the global empire of Aritsar to compete with other children to be chosen as one of the Crown Prince's Council of 11. If she's picked, she'll be joined with the other Council members through the Ray, a bond deeper than blood. That closeness is irresistible to Tarisai, who has always wanted to belong somewhere. But The Lady has other ideas, including a magical wish that Tarisai is compelled to obey: kill the Crown Prince once she gains his trust. Tarisai won't stand by and become someone's pawn??but is she strong enough to choose a different path for herself?

With extraordinary world-building and breathtaking prose, Raybearer is the story of loyalty, fate, and the lengths we're willing to go for the ones we love… (mere)

Gr 7 Up—When Tarisai successfully earns a place on the Council of 11, she is happy to be one among others, with
little interest in the higher honor of being bonded to the Crown Prince through the Ray and carrying out her mother's
plan of assassination. Blending fantasy, Nigerian folklore, and a complex and engaging set of relationships, debut
author Ifueko pits loyalty to self against family obligations, newfound friendships, and love.

I sucked this one down quickly and hope for a sequel ( )

Tarisai of Swana is born to a perplexing woman called The Lady and a djinn (called an ehru in this novel), and her whole life is a preparation to join the Crown Prince’s Council of Eleven, all of whom possess some magical power. However, even before she arrived, she was cryptically instructed (programmed, really) to kill the prince, the person she as a Council member, is sworn to protect and love. Tarisai resists this instruction, travelling through the twelve realms of Aristar trying to understand herself and this command. Political unrest, palace intrigue, bigotry, love, betrayal, and marginalization of “other” are the familiar themes that drive the plot, making this strange universe relatable to our own. Impressive debut fantasy novel. ( )

This was gold. Ifueko's very creative. Only nitpick some of the Anointed Ones got more spotlight than others. ( )

For the kid scanning fairy tales

for a hero with a face like theirs.

And for the girls whose stories

we compressed into pities and wonders,

triumphs and cautions, without asking,

even once, for their names.
