The Dance Of Shadows is the debut novel by Rogba Payne, and Ross just got done reading it. Not only does it have the best front cover of 2024, it's right up there with the best books of this year full stop.

This is a powerful work of afrofantasy with strong women, an inventive magic system, deep cultural worldbuilding, and most of all, an epic scope. But enough waxing lyrical in the description… watch the video and find out why you should read it!
