Redemptor, Chapters 34-36
22 JUN 2023 · In memory of Zuri I decided to use this gorgeous illustration of Tarisai and the king of Djibanti by https://www.instagram.com/wantsgmarie/which you can see on Jordan Ifueko's instagram here! https://www.instagram.com/p/CPPXVZULg99/
These are the final chapters of the book, in which Tarisai is INDEED betrayed by her mother like RoShawn (and most of us, I have to imagine) predicted. This leads to Tarisai getting confronted by the Abiku and having to make a difficult choice that I personally didn't see coming at all.
Thanks so much for listening

We are finally in the Underworld, and things are pretty wild round these parts. RoShawn is real mad at Tarisai, and I can't say as I blame her.

These chapters are the ones in which Zuri's revolution begins, and he finally connects to the Ray, only to reveal to Tarisai that he used to be connected with The Lady. RoShawn is NOT pleased.
In happier news, Tarisai finally admits that she needs help, and is taken to a place where she can find peace. Of course, this is only temporary, and she's going to need to face her demons soon enough.

These chapters are the ones where Tarisai has a conversation with the newly revealed Crocodile about revolution and his role in the kingdom, and she sees Woo In again! Also, we get to see how good Dayo is with babies and it's adorable.

These chapters are the ones in which Tarisai takes her first step in the direction of annointing her own council by seeing the memories of others and sharing her own memories with them...but she can't help but edit the memories to make herself look more like the ideal Queen, and RoShawn is highly displeased.

These chapters are the ones in which Tarisai has to negotiate with an angry, volcanic alugbato to save a whole town, while the Crocodile sings a song to get it riled up. He doesn't seem to have much of a plan beyond "burn it all down" though, and Tarisai's plan turns out the be a little more ambitious than she's allowed without jumping through some hoops first.

Raybearer, Book 2- Redemptor, Chapters 6-9. (nice.)
20 APR 2023 · This lovely watercolor illustration of Melu was a winner in a Raybearer fanart contest, but the artist it's linked to (@wise_watercolors) is no longer active on Instagram so if anyone knows who to credit please let me know!
These chapters are the ones in which RoShawn starts to feel like her girl Tarisai is not making the most wise choices, and is growing a little worried. Tar also gets called out by her friends for being so willing to throw herself into danger while not allowing them to take similar risks. Meanwhile, she is still seeing strange child ghost spirit demon things, and it's not going anywhere good.

Raybearer, Book 2: Redemptor- Chapters 1-5
13 APR 2023 · This gorgeous cover art is for the UK edition and is by Micaela Alcaino. Don't miss the awesome optical illusion of Tarisai's face!
RoShawn and I are beginning the second (and so far, final) book of the Raybearer series, and it really begins with a bang. We've got a low-level heist, a murder, a mysterious creature that seems to materialize out of nowhere, and a massive banquet where Tarisai tries something new and dramatic to communicate with the guests.
Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!
