As the true Descendant, I command to open The door to Chidani; it shall be broken Magic awaits those who seek the queen's peace And all the suffering you feel will cease Those who open the histories will hear a sound What was lost has finally been found. Cameron Battle grew up reading The Book of Chidani, cherishing stories about the fabled kingdom that cut itself off from the world to save the Igbo people from danger. Passed down over generations, the Book is Cameron's only connection to his parents who disappeared one fateful night, two years ago. Ever since, his grandmother has kept the Book locked away, but it calls to Cameron. When he and his best friends, Zion and Aliyah, decide to open it again, they are magically transported to Chidani. Instead of a land of beauty and wonder, they find a kingdom in extreme danger, as the queen's sister seeks to destroy the barrier between worlds. The people of Chidani have been waiting for the last Descendant to return and save them . . . is Cameron ready to be the hero they need?

      Narrator Marc Anthony Samuel fills this action-packed middle-grade audiobook with cinematic character voices. Full of Igbo history and myths, Cameron's favorite book follows his ancestors from West Africa to America. These stories, which delighted Cameron as a little boy, feel like the last link to his parents, who mysteriously disappeared several years ago. When it turns out the book is a portal to another world, he and two friends find themselves unlikely challengers of a powerful, magical foe. While Samuel delivers the narrative in a monotone, he creates wonderful voices for the magical character voices, and the text has more than enough wonder and power of its own. Listeners will be thrilled to the last cliff-hanging moment and clamoring for the next audiobook. S.T.C. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
