Perfect for you if...

  • You love epic supernatural sagas where personal relationships carry world-ending consequences.
  • You're drawn to Black-authored speculative fiction that weaves spirituality and mythology into contemporary stakes.
  • You want a series where each book deepens the mythology without requiring you to start from book one.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer standalone novels and don't want to track an ongoing immortal family saga across multiple books.
  • You're looking for light, optimistic reads. This has genuine darkness and the real possibility that humanity loses.
  • You find love triangles tiresome when they're central to saving the world rather than secondary drama.

About this book

The fourth book in the African Immortals series continues the story of descendants from an immortal line with the power to save the world. Fana, an immortal with strong telepathic abilities, faces a conflict of will. She is engaged to Michel, but Johnny Wright, a mortal in love with her, fears that if she marries Michel, they will become the Witnesses to the Apocalypse described in the Book of Revelation. Fana and the Life Brothers work to distribute their healing "Living Blood" across the world to eliminate most diseases before Fana's marriage to Michel takes place. However, they cannot heal people faster than Michel can kill them. The novel weaves together characters from the author's earlier work Joplin's Ghost in a conflict between good and evil.
