Eventually, Sunny knows she must confront her destiny.

Akata Warrior Nnedi Okorafor Books Reviews
I’d recommend this book to anyone who loves magic and adventure. This book allows you to relate by showing how your self doubt and insecurities can hinder you and blind you from reaching your true potential. Through determination and friends and family who believe in you, anything is possible.
Great read!!
A magnificent journey of the mind and spirit. This coming to age take of a young woman and her three friends is filled with the insight of multicultural person making her way to knowing herself in a familiar yet strange enviornment. The culture of Africa and specifically Nigeria was a character that enlightened, admonished and caressed the reader. Enjoyable. A must read for anyone.
Sunny shows us that the things we think are our weaknesses are indeed our strengths. She teaches us to stand tall and listen when the answers are not clear. This book was more than a book, but a lifestyle.
Nnedi takes her imagination and make a place real. I felt while reading like I have been here before. This book is a wonderful piece of art.
So well written. You fall in love with these characters. This book is exciting, scary, thrilling and fun. I cant wait for book 3. Plus, I get to learn about different cultures and beliefs. Mystical creatures, African magic, food, peoples, places, etc. So different from my world yet exactly the same. No matter where you go, folks are the same.
What a wonderful unique story. I can't wait until Sunny's next adventure. In fact, I'd love to see this on the big screen or even the small screen. It's such a complete world full of complicated characters who grow and develop. And although there is some decidedly evil characters, most characters are shades of gray. Making the best decisions they can given their situations.
I loved this well written, entertaining sequel to Akata Witch. It is a bit scary for younger readers, but will keep more adventurous kids and adults turning the pages with excitement. The characters are engaging and well developed, and the setting gives an old storyline (kids go on a magical adventure to save the world) a new perspective.
One indicator that a book is good, well written and has a compelling story is that you become absorbed in its “world.” Such is the case with the Akata Witch series. Advertised to me as the “African Harry Potter” (whose books I love by the way) I found this series to be a fantasy that stands on its own, sans the derivative reference. I kept thinking about the levels of subtext - colorism, sexism, pan-Africanism, sibling rivalry, self discovery, honor, covenant making and friendship and on and on. I found myself wanting to develop a literature course or even a social psychology course around it! Brava! This book is a winner!
Bruuuuuuuuuh. This book is genius. She weaved together sooo much so eloquently. Love, friendship,danger,adventure,folklore,religion,action,life lessons...*smh* so good. I can't wait for the next installment.
