THE VEIL OF OSHOGBO: A West African Epic Fantasy

A father lost to the fog. A son who refuses to let him go. A music box that sings the song of everything you've ever wanted. Twenty years ago, Captain Uche sailed into the Veil of Oshogbo-a mythical wall of standing fog that swallows ships and never gives them back. His vessel, the Sea Cobra, was found drifting, her decks clean, her crew gone. Eleven survivors returned with their minds shattered, speaking only of beautiful, terrible music. Now Uche's son, Emeka, has come of age. Armed with his father's blood-stained journal, a mysterious medallion that grows warm against his chest, and a crew of misfits who have all lost someone to the fog, he sails toward the impossible. >Beyond it, the sea turns to glass. The compass spins wild. And the dead whisper your name in the voice of everyone you've ever loved. Emeka seeks the music box-the source of the song that stole his father's soul. But the box does not kill. It keeps. It offers visions of peace, of reunion, of an end to all longing. And the only weapon that can shatter it-the legendary Dragon's Tooth-demands a terrible price: the one who wields it will be changed forever. The Veil of Oshogbo is a West African epic fantasy about grief that becomes purpose, love that outlasts death, and the impossible choice between freeing the ones we've lost and becoming something new.
