Product Details

Hard cover, some shelf wear and page discoloration, Rescued is the first book in Marlon James's Dark Star Trilogy, a fantasy novel inspired by African mythology, following a hunter named Tracker hired to find a missing boy, leading him and a diverse group of companions, including a shape-shifting Leopard, on a dangerous journey filled with mythical creatures and political intrigue in a pre-colonial setting. Praised for its unique voice, complex narrative, and rich world-building, it's known for its brutal, imaginative, and challenging style, often compared to epic fantasy but with a distinctly African-centered perspective. Goodreads: 3.4/5 Fantasy, 18+
