Just as rich and lovely as Akata Witch. A truly enjoyable read. It left me wanting more and I hope a third book that details Sunny helping Chichi fulfill her quest for Udide is forthcoming.

In this sequel to Akata Witch, Sunny Nwazue, along with her friends from the Leopard Society, travel through worlds, both visible and invisible, to the mysterious town of Osisi, where they fight in a climactic battle to save humanity. 

Not much time has passed since Sunny's first outing in Akata Witch (a year and a half) but the story has shifted from what was largely a tale of initiation and education into a full-blown epic, with the fate of the world, along with Sunny’s entire identity – in the balance. Similar to Akata Witch, one of the main threats of this book is the malevolent mas­querade named Ekwensu, who intends to usher in the apocalypse. 
 
 This is one of most imaginative and fabulous fantasies I have ever read. It is filled with so much imagination, humor, action, mythology, and heart. It is truly quite unique. Akata Warrior is an entertaining and action-packed book with a lovable heroine at its center. It's a book about family, friends, and gaining self-knowledge. And it is about a girl who’s just trying to find her place in the world, when she’s called upon to save it. 
 
I also think (as many have noted) that this is a unique coming of age story, coupling the distinct experience of the cultural duality as both African and African-American with lessons of love, loyalty, and the pains of adolescent insecurities. 

I look forward to experiencing more magic and adventure in a third installment.

I didn't enjoy this as much as book #1, but still a great read. Engaging and original.

A wonderful expansion on a great world. Could not put it down and found myself rather enthralled with the ideas. So very full. Highly suggested.
