Book Description
For thousands of years under one deity, humans, animals, and nature coexisted in peace and harmony in the progressive rainforest enclave called Yoyoland. But now, the arrival of a half-human immigrant from the animal kingdom has brought change. Civilization and adherence to one religion, which characterized Yoyoland and stood it apart, has quickly given way to bloodletting, wars, dark forces, sorceries, and witchcraft. A runaway immigrant named Ikiko dishonored the god of her land and was judged in the highest chamber in her kingdom. She exiled herself and immigrated to Yoyoland. She became pregnant and bore a daughter called Aboma. Aboma, a powerful queen of witches, is dominated by evil forces and is pregnant at birth, bearing a son named Ikenga. With her well-trained army of wizards, warlocks and goblins, she ruthlessly fights any religion and deity that are not hers. Enter Elechi: the one-man army and the ordained parson of Yoyoland, who swears an oath to destroy Aboma and any religion and deity that are not his. Birth of the Witch King is the first of four books of the Chronicles of Ikenga. Set in a torturous world of "live and don't let live," it tells of vicious wars, magic, sorceries, the supernatural, and monsters.
