Review by OHS Library Secretary, Mikel
This book is well written and makes you want to get to the next page. It’s about two young girls caught in a war between Nigerians and Biafrans. They are child soldiers orphaned by the war. There are soldiers with bionic limbs and artificial organs. There are two friends, Onjii and Ify who are separated in battle. They think they will never see each other again, but their trails bring them together. Onyii is a warrior nicknamed the Demon of Belfran. Ify is very intelligent and dreams of going to outer space. Daren, a soldier connects with Ifu and takes care of her. Daren becomes a leader of his people which helps Ify achieve her goals. 4 years later circumstances evolve which make it possible for them to reunite. However, being together could mean risking everything. I recommend this book and it is an exciting read. It is best for high school level and above.
