Black Leopard, Red Wolf sees myth, fantasy, and history come together to explore what could happen when a trained mercenary is hired to find a missing child . . .
Drawing from African history and mythology and his own rich imagination, Marlon James has written an adventure that's also an ambitious, involving read. Defying categorization and full of unforgettable characters, Black Leopard, Red Wolf explores the fundamentals of truths, the limits of power, the excesses of ambition, and our need to understand them all.
"Gripping and action-packed, Black Leopard Red Wolf is the literary equivalent of a Marvel Comics universe." -- The New York Times
