Since its publication in 2018, Adeyemi’s "Legacy of Orïsha" trilogy has captivated millions, spending an astonishing
175 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Adeyemi’s motivation for writing "Children of Blood and Bone" stemmed from a desire to celebrate Black identity and challenge stereotypes, inspired by the backlash to Amandla Stenberg’s casting in "The Hunger Games."
“I wanted to write a story so good and so Black that everyone would have to read it—even if they were racist,”
Adeyemi shared in an interview.
Her bold vision paid off. With almost
3 million copies sold worldwide, the series has cemented its place among the greatest fantasy works of all time.
