I’ve always wished that my past would go up in smoke, but I never meant it like this.

After a mysterious fire destroys her childhood home, Exodus Omari moves in with her estranged uncle only to discover that her early memories have been robbed of her family’s connection to Black diasporic magic. To restore her mind and claim her rightful place in a gods-serving secret society of jujuworkers, Exodus allies herself with her long-forgotten best friend to wield her power before monsters, and the assailant behind them, take that power for good. GODBLOOD is a YA urban fantasy pairing a Black trans butch protagonist with the ancestral magic of Legendborn, the queer reclamation of The Witch King, and the unflinching anger of Bad Witch Burning.

Orli Maddox had her plans for junior year locked-in. Shoot for straight As (settle for straight Bs), find a part time job after school, schmooze her girlfriend’s mom enough to take her to Junior prom without an incident. But when a panic attack overloads part of the city’s power grid, all that planning seemingly goes out the window. Jericho, the world’s mightiest man, offers an apprenticeship with him in the police’s extra-human operations department, and it seems like a chance for Orli to not only get her life back on track, but help people in the process. Only between her girlfriend’s scrutiny of Orli’s police work and her boss’s increasingly excessive tactics, she starts to wonder just how much protecting and serving the department really does.
