Iyanu, a teenage orphan with no recollection of her past, suddenly discovers that she has abilities that rival the ancient deities told of in the folklore of her people. It is these abilities that are the key to bringing back an "age of wonders,” as Iyanu begins her journey to save a world on the brink of destruction! The Corrupt—cursed wildlife and strange, divine beasts—are determined to destroy humanity, unless Iyanu can stop them.

A timeless fantasy quest inspired by Yoruba culture and myths—from the best Nigerian comics talent!

Praise for Iyanu: Child of Wonder Library Edition Volume 1

“Our mission is and always has been about empowering African creatives and storytelling while bringing both to a global audience.”—Roye Okupe, YouNeek Studios founder

“It’s one of my proudest achievements—coming up with this young adult title that features a very young teenage girl doing big things, and having a female heroine that, really, anyone can identify with.”—Roye Okupe, YouNeek Studios founder

“Okupe has clearly demonstrated a range of writing styles, whilst keeping the idea of African culture and history alive. By having the proponent as a child, Okupe allows for a simpler worldview to contrast the more political aspects.”—Comic Crusaders
