About the Book

An odyssey straddling two worlds. An initiatory journey from Nigeria to Haiti, passing through Spain.

A thriller of fantastic realism, against the backdrop of human trafficking. A story of love and transit where reality and fiction are juxtaposed around a transgressive and relentless plot in search of freedom and rebirth after the darkest night of the soul. A fresh and enveloping narration with an outcome as surprising as it is unexpected.

Professional reading evaluations

A well-founded and consistent argument combines subjects typical of the genre, except for one of the main characters closer to the anti-hero. The omniscient elements, the goal of the protagonist, development, theme, and locations perfectly close a story that denounces human trafficking and exploitation, inviting reflection on some aspects of Western society, showing a very widespread religious reality in Africa and Latin America, as is Umbanda, although it is also incipient in Europe, bringing the reader closer to a topic of permanent use in the media

-Lara Redal. Reader, Córdoba.

I have been reviewing the manuscript, Orixá, and it has surprised me I will not lie to you. The content and the form. The subject of African prostitution and association with some African priests or masters of ceremonies is more than interesting but also risky. It certainly injects veracity into the main characters and chosen frames. Although the African and Afro American theme and their invisible world much more structured and traveled than in the West, is more complex than what is hinted at and exposed here (do not forget the always presence of sacrifice where whites always put money), the blood of certain animals, a medium and strong alcohol to come into contact with the invisible catwalks. This condition is indispensable in any African area, where magic is part of their lives). However, the theme opens it up and gives a lot of play, not only for the thriller format.

On a more technical level... I really like how he writes; he makes it easy, fluid, and fresh, although the rhythm he gives to his novel is feverish, like the beginning itself. I also praise that happy ending between Mario and Ikere. Those endings are neither easy nor common. Congratulations on that! In general, all the writing exudes truthfulness, even in the most fictionalized parts.

-Elena Morilla, editorial reader, Barcelona.

It is a novel that will make the reader shudder in an odyssey through human nature, managing its evolution to start deep thoughts without ceasing to be a story capable of emotionally moving, keeping in suspense before each new event.

-Borja Caamaño Fajardo, A Coruña.
