In the Shadow of the Fall
Tobi Ogundiran
Rooted in West African mythology, this lyrical dark-fantasy novella follows a young woman drawn into a perilous confrontation with ancient powers and the shadows of a troubled past. As gods, spirits, and human ambitions collide, she must navigate a world shaped by loss, transformation, and forces far beyond her understanding. Richly atmospheric and steeped in Yoruba-inspired lore, the story explores memory, identity, grief, and the cost of resisting fate. Tobi Ogundiran’s evocative prose gives the tale the feel of an old myth retold with startling immediacy.
At the Fount of Creation
Tobi Ogundiran
In this richly imagined fantasy, the boundaries between the mortal world and the divine blur as characters are drawn toward the mysterious source of creation itself. Rooted in African-inspired mythology and imbued with a strong sense of place, the story explores inheritance, faith, power, and the cost of shaping the world anew. Tobi Ogundiran’s lyrical, atmospheric prose brings ancient forces and human longing into vivid tension, creating an evocative tale of destiny, transformation, and the search for belonging.
