*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.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

While I really loved the first book, I felt the second book fell a bit flat and was dragging at times. Still a good listen though and the cliffhanger insinuates that there will be at least a third book. The narrator is probably my favorite narrator so far, very genuine and powerful performance.

Phenomenal narrator

Narrators voice was awful. If was a hard listen due to her “forced” accent. Great read though

I see that others didn't like the melodramatic storyline of book 2, but I found it to follow the first book incredibly well and stayed true to the characters' natures and histories. Keep in mind that this is a book for young adults and the main characters are in their late teens/early 20s. There are certainly times when a character acts out of impulse or emotion and it's infuriating, but also understandable considering their age and the trauma they've all endured. I found their choices to be incredibly human and relatable-- nobody makes all of the right decisions all of the time. Overall, I found this to be a fantastic follow-up to Children of Blood and Bone and I can't wait for the 3rd book. Bahni Turpin's narration is incredible and she does such a wonderful job distinguishing between the different characters and their origins. A++++ all around.

Great book, wonderful narration.

I loved the first book in this series and this second book was equally as enthralling. There are times I wanted to strangle the characters and times I wanted to weep along with them. The narrative performance was amazing and skillfully crafted keeping you enraptured in every moment. I highly recommend this series to everyone that loves a good story.

Hard to put down

A page turner you will not want to put down! Its excitement, layered characters, and breathtaking imagery pull you in and keep you close. The reader's interpretation practically makes you feel every blow, every triumph, every heartbeat and every heartbreak. A must read!

Riveting!

I needed the Shero in Z to come out so bad. I wanted her the be the fierce young warrior we saw in the first book. Instead, her character spent half the book feeling sorry for herself and whined every chance she got. The storyline overall was amazing and action packed. Narrator Bonnie continues to do an excellent job. I really got a sense that it was truly separate characters telling their own version of the tale. When Z finally found her legs, she was amazing, just wished I didnt have to read 6 hours to get to it.

Z took too long to gain a backbone

No words.

The first book was a beautiful fantasy. This one was simply devastating and I am shaken that I have to wait for the next...
