Moon Witch, Spider King

From Marlon James, the second book in the Dark Star trilogy, "Moon Witch, Spider King" centers on Sogolon, a centuries-old witch, as she recounts her own story amidst a mythic African landscape. The novel offers a fresh perspective on events from the first installment, focusing on Sogolon's battles, alliances, and her long-standing feud with a powerful chancellor. Part adventure and part exploration of power and identity, the book provides a compelling view of a woman's resilience and influence in a richly imagined world.
