A Ladder of Bones

In a land haunted by the ghosts of forgotten histories, A Ladder of Bones follows the journey of a young woman who stumbles upon a mysterious path paved by ancestral remains. Each bone tells a story — of struggle, betrayal, sacrifice, and resilience. As she ascends this eerie ladder, she uncovers buried secrets about her lineage and the nation’s hidden past. The climb becomes both spiritual and political, forcing her to choose between comfort and courage, silence and truth.

Rich with symbolism and steeped in African mysticism, this gripping tale is a meditation on memory, justice, and the cost of reclaiming one’s heritage.

Mansa Musa: The Richest Who Ever Lived

More than a tale of gold and grandeur, Mansa Musa: The Richest Who Ever Lived is a vibrant reimagining of the life of Africa’s legendary emperor. Told through a blend of historical fact and richly woven fiction, the story follows Musa’s rise from obscurity to global renown as he journeys across deserts and kingdoms, reshaping the world’s understanding of wealth, power, and purpose.

But behind the shimmer of gold lies a deeper legacy — of wisdom, Islamic scholarship, trade, diplomacy, and the spiritual weight of leadership. This book invites readers young and old to rediscover African royalty not just as rulers, but as visionaries who changed the world’s narrative.

Three Women

Three women. Three lives. One continent stitched by invisible threads of pain, passion, and purpose.
In this evocative novel, Dr. Bunmi Oyinsan paints the portraits of Ada, Zainab, and Tariro — women from different African regions whose paths cross in unexpected ways. Each faces her own battle: the trauma of war, the entrapment of tradition, the thirst for freedom in a patriarchal world.
As their stories unfold and converge, Three Women becomes a celebration of resilience, sisterhood, and the quiet rebellions that reshape destinies. A powerful narrative about womanhood in all its contradictions — bold yet broken, silenced yet screaming, ordinary yet revolutionary.
