"What if you discovered that you come from an ancient family of Shadow Chasers, with a duty to protect others from an evil Army of Shadows?"
Nom is an outsider at school. When she and Zithembe become friends, life still seems, well, a little ordinary. But when an army of monsters threatens their world, it’s all up to the two of them … and the start of a journey into the dreamworld on a quest that will change their lives.

Powers Of The Knife is the first book in the Shadow Chasers trilogy. It’s an African fantasy adventure - one part family saga, one part hero’s quest.

Fun and exciting

"Powers of the knife", is the perfect book for new readers. Being the first book in the sequel it is fast-paced, fun, and sparks creativity all while drawing in and engaging the reader. The book dives into the world of magical powers and monsters, creating an adventure for the reader. I would highly recommend this book to young new readers.

A good read

I really enjoyed this book when i was younger. This fantastic supernatural adventure with an Afrocentric focus is catered to children between the ages of 9 and 12. It's exhilarating, action-packed, and moody. Because of their intelligence and bravery, Nom and Zee realize they must confront the "monsters" when strange things begin happening to the adults in their village.

Great for young readers

I loved these young teen fantasies (this is the first in a series) that are filled with African mythology like Mami Wata, the Tathe Vondo forest as a magical place, and healing plants and herbs. The books are very short but fun and fast paced, and I would recommend them for kids from age 8 to about 10.
