Overview

Apart from it's entertainment values, storytelling was a method of education and preservation of culture in Africa, prior to colonisation and globalisation.
Sadly, this invaluable instrument of disseminating of wisdom has continued to wane rapidly.
The book is a two-in-one collection of stories in African folklore themed around various characters and plots, which contributes to the revitalisation of the African heritage.
Book One chronicles the expedition of man into the forest of the djins and the land of the dead, in his quest for a heir. Will he succeed?
Book Two is collection of stories of different plots, which teaches morals, etiquettes and the enviable values of the African culture.
