Up first is #JordanIfueko and her Raybearer world:
- Raybearer
- Redemptor
- The Maid and the Crocodile
The book cover of Raybearer by Jordan Ifueko features an intricate and striking illustration. Two lions, one golden and the other a darker, reddish shade, are intertwined among red and green leaves with golden vines curling through the design. The title Raybearer is written in large, white, stylized letters across the top of the cover, curving slightly to follow the image. Below the lions, the phrase "Behold what is coming" appears in gold lettering, followed by the author’s name, Jordan Ifueko, in bold white letters at the bottom. The background is deep black, making the vivid colors of the lions and foliage stand out dramatically. The book cover of Redemptor by Jordan Ifueko, the sequel to Raybearer, features a striking, vibrant design. At the center is a young Black woman with glowing dark skin, adorned with shimmering patterns and an ornate, futuristic silver crown-like headpiece. Her hair is voluminous, curly, and dotted with glowing multicolored lights. The background is a rich, ethereal purple with abstract patterns, light bursts, and butterflies, creating a magical and cosmic effect. The title Redemptor appears in large, bold golden-yellow letters at the top, with the author's name, Jordan Ifueko, at the bottom in matching gold lettering. The overall design feels regal, fantastical, and otherworldly. The book cover of The Maid and the Crocodile by Jordan Ifueko features a vibrant and colorful design. The background consists of a swirling blend of blue, green, yellow, and orange hues, creating a magical atmosphere. A large shadow of a crocodile looms across the top left, its silhouette dark and foreboding. To the right, a young Black woman with braids and a leafy crown looks out with a calm yet determined expression. Her hand is raised as if summoning or interacting with something unseen. The title The Maid and the Crocodile is written in bold, white, textured letters, with the word Crocodile slightly distorted to resemble reptilian scales. At the bottom, the author's name, Jordan Ifueko, appears in similar stylized lettering. The overall design is mysterious, whimsical, and enchanting.

I don't know if the same voice actress did the other #books in the series, #Raybearer and #Redemptor, as it was years ago I read those, but those had a VA with a similar accent at least. Could've been the same woman, I guess. #booksky #audiobook #JordanIfueko

I should also note that I've been #reading the #audiobook version of "The Maid and The Crocodile," as I prefer #audiobooks as an adult with #depression that makes reading the regular way difficult. The voice actor for this #book has a lovely accent, I think #Nigerian but I'm not sure. #booksky

#Reading "The Maid and The Crocodile" by Jordan Ifueko. The main character, a 17 year old girl, uses a cane and has #vitiligo. She got her #disability from child labor. The book is set in the #Raybearer series' universe but it can be read standalone.

Ooh, #JordanIfueko has a new book set in the same world as #Raybearer & #Redemptor! Well, it came out last year, but it's new to me. This #book is "The Maid and the Crocodile," and the sounds amazing! The protag is #disabled, too, which is always a plus. I have the #audiobook on hold.

#TheGenieGame by #JordanIfueko is a Dystopian SF/Fantasy filled with magic & adventure. It also says a lot about sisterhood, found family & our capitalist world. The audio is narrated with aplomb by the author for #Rbmedia Thank you #NetGalley for the e-audio ALC. #BookSky
