“What does it require?”
Kieza looked at her steadily. “Knowing that the outcome isn’t yours to carry. That you do your part faithfully, and trust the rest to powers beyond your own.”
(Excerpt from Eta and the Queens Book 4 The Trials of Patience – featuring Queen Nzinga of the Ndongo and Matamba). Coming Soon!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the kingdom of Emure \u2014 where electric trains wind through ancient cocoa farms and the Omi Aro waterfall roars where heaven meets earth \u2014 three identical sisters are about to discover that they are far more than they ever imagined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tade, Tode, and Tide have always been different: one a dreamer, one a healer, one a fighter. Raised by their devoted father after the death of their mother, the Eta Oba<\/em> \u2014 the Royal Three \u2014 stand on the edge of womanhood, seeking answers about who they are meant to become. What they receive instead is an impossible invitation: a scroll, a library lost in time, and a journey through the centuries to meet the legendary queens of Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the courts of Queen Makeda of Sheba<\/a> to the battlefields of Amanirenas of Kush<\/a>, from the sacrifice of Queen Pokou of the Baoule<\/a> at the Como\u00e9 River to the unyielding courage of Yaa Asantewaa and Amina of Zazzau \u2014 the sisters will sit at the feet of the bravest women history has ever known.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this is not just a quest for wisdom. It is a quest for identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guided by the mysterious High Priest who appears where they least expect him, the triplets begin to unravel a truth their mother knew before they were born: that their strength, their brilliance, and their courage were never truly their own \u2014 they were gifts from a Father who loved them into being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Books 1 and 2<\/a>, the sisters learned to seek wisdom beyond themselves \u2014 Queen Makeda<\/a> showed them that true understanding begins with humility, and Queen Amanirenas<\/a> taught them to hold their power with restraint. Armed with ancient scrolls and the knowledge of the Great Library of Timbuktu, they grew in confidence. Yet they still leaned on their own gifts: Tade on her intellect, Tode on her healing hands, Tide on her warrior’s instincts. They were drawing closer to Eledua \u2014 but still from a distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book 3 changes everything. Beside the rushing waters of the Como\u00e9 River, the sisters witness Queen Pokou<\/a> make the most devastating sacrifice a mother can make \u2014 and suddenly, the cost of love becomes real. The High Priest steps out of the shadows to reveal himself fully, and the girls are confronted with a question that no scroll can answer: will they accept that they were loved and chosen before they ever drew breath? For the first time, the triplets stop striving and simply receive \u2014 moving from the old ways of ritual and distance into something far more personal, far more powerful, and far more dangerous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, in Book 4, the sisters face their greatest challenge yet \u2014 each other. A fierce argument tears the Eta Oba<\/em> apart, and the High Priest sends them on separate trials: through fire, water, and earth. Alone for the first time, each sister must reckon with the lies she has believed about herself and come face to face with the Advocate in a way she never could when hidden behind her sisters. Queen Nzinga of Matamba awaits them on the other side \u2014 a warrior-queen who has already walked the path they are just beginning. She will teach them their first hard virtue: patience. Not the quiet, passive kind \u2014 but the fierce, unshakeable patience of a daughter who knows exactly who her Father is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three girls. Twelve queens. Nine virtues. One extraordinary journey to womanhood.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For every girl who has ever wondered who she is \u2014 and every young reader ready to discover where real power comes from.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Eta and the Queens is a bold, continent-spanning adventure series rooted in Africa’s royal history and threaded through with timeless spiritual truth. Perfect for readers of Rick Riordan and Tricia Goyer who love mythology, history, and stories that change how they see themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
