About this ebook

In 2099, an unassuming young man enrolls for an African History degree at the Azania State University, somewhere in Southern Africa. When a chance encounter with an ancient artifact at the University Museum leaves him with the ability to transform into the shadow of anything he touches, he goes on a journey to discover who he really is and why he was chosen to have such powers. But there is someone else who is after his gifts: a powerful sorcerer who will stop at nothing to change the face of the continent, leaving death and destruction in his wake. With time running out, Luyanda has to find a way to master the shadows, save his own skin and stop a madman before he becomes an undefeatable tyrant.

Ratings and reviews

This book was really good. Something different from what I've read before in terms of the story, the way it's told and the style of writing. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good hero story and to those who are trying to kindle a flame for reading.
