About this audiobook
"After the untimely death of her brother, a gifted African princess who excels in cyber hacking embarks on an extraordinary journey to uncover her true identity and rekindle her connection with culture. L'iola who is a descendant of the N'Juzu who are her estranged mystical family from the ocean must turn in order to defeat her enemies."
I AM SAKKURAN is an electrifying Afro-futurism serialised novel infused with technological fantasy on the backdrop of African culture. After the death of her twin brother, L'iola tasks herself with trying to find the golden urn her brother had been looking. On this quest she must either harness her hidden powers or fight in order to uncover the truth.
As she delves deeper into the mystery surrounding her brother's death, L'iola faces challenges both personal and cultural, while navigating the conflicting layers of secrets that surround her. Throughout her life, L'iola had distanced herself from her African roots, having become accustomed to Western culture living comfortably in Switzerland. However, her journey back to her homeland not only reconnects her with her culture, but also uncovers secrets that threaten her understanding of her own identity.
With a fast-paced plot, eye-catching imagery, and richly crafted world building, this novel takes readers on a journey filled with mystery and intrigue. Through L'iola's transformation from a secret architect of a successful computer security system used worldwide to a determined investigator. The blend of science fiction, coming-of-age, empowerment and identity themes create a unique and enthralling reading experience, rooted in a non-Eurocentric perspective.
