Product Information
"Masterfully flips the first installment on its head... James makes the mythic tantalizingly real.'" -- Esquire "Even more brilliant than the first." -- Buzzfeed An Instant New York Times Bestseller and NPR Best Book of 2022 pick From Marlon James, author of the bestselling National Book Award finalist Black Leopard, Red Wolf , the second book in the Dark Star trilogy. In Black Leopard, Red Wolf , Sogolon the Moon Witch proved a worthy adversary to Tracker as they clashed across a mythical African landscape in search of a mysterious boy who disappeared. In Moon Witch, Spider King , Sogolon takes center stage and gives her own account of what happened to the boy, and how she plotted and fought, triumphed and failed as she looked for him. It's also the story of a century-long feud--seen through the eyes of a 177-year-old witch--that Sogolon had with the Aesi, chancellor to the king. It is said that Aesi works so closely with the king that together they are like the eight limbs of one spider. Aesi's power is considerable--and deadly. It takes brains and courage to challenge him, which Sogolon does for reasons of her own. Both a brilliant narrative device--seeing the story told in Black Leopard, Red Wolf from the perspective of an adversary and a woman--as well as a fascinating battle between different versions of empire, Moon Witch, Spider King delves into Sogolon's world as she fights to tell her own story. Part adventure tale, part chronicle of an indomitable woman who bows to no man, it is a fascinating novel that explores power, personality, and the places where they overlap.

Reviews
Praise for Moon Witch, Spider King : "This second volume in a projected trilogy set in a boldly imagined, opulently apportioned ancient Africa shows that the Booker Prize-winning novelist is building something deeper and more profoundly innovative within the swords-and-sorcery genre. . . . witty, richly textured, and musically captivating . . . . There's barely enough space to talk about James' many inventions. . . . So much is densely packed into this narrative that it sometimes threatens to leave the reader gasping for breath, especially at the start. But . . . . James' tale picks up speed with beautifully orchestrated (and ferociously violent) set pieces and language both vivid and poetic. The second part of this trilogy is darker and, in many ways, more moving than its predecessor." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred), Praise for Moon Witch, Spider King : "This second volume in a projected trilogy set in a boldly imagined, opulently apportioned ancient Africa shows that the Booker Prize-winning novelist is building something deeper and more profoundly innovative within the swords-and-sorcery genre. . . . witty, richly textured, and musically captivating . . . . There's barely enough space to talk about James' many inventions. . . .

James' tale picks up speed with beautifully orchestrated (and ferociously violent) set pieces and language both vivid and poetic. The second part of this trilogy is darker and, in many ways, more moving than its predecessor." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred) "Brilliant. . . If book one centers on the nature of storytelling, this volume turns its focus to memory, archiving, and history as Sogolon works to correct the record. The two stories run parallel to and contradict each other, and James mines the distance between them to raise powerful questions about whether truth is possible when the power of storytelling is available only to a few. This is a tour de force." -- Publishers Weekly (starred) "If Black Leopard, Red Wolf is a penciled comic panel, Moon Witch, Spider King is the version rendered by James the inker: the geography, myth, magic, and people of this epic setting are revisited to add shading and detail in a recursive procedure that results in a vibrant tapestry begging for infinite return trips." -- Booklist (starred) "James masterfully flips the first installment on its head. . . .Through Sogolon's roving journeys across landscapes and decades, James makes the mythic tantalizingly real. Pick up this titanic story of empire, adventure, and power to see why the trilogy has earned the title 'the African Game of Thrones .'" -- Esquire " Black Leopard, Red Wolf , the first book in Marlon James' Dark Star trilogy, was a violent, sprawling, thrilling read. The Man Booker Prize-winning author's follow-up, Moon Witch, Spider King , promises to deliver more of the same, but with a twist. . . .James has an uncanny ability to use multiple perspectives to deepen and expand his worlds, and that bodes very well for his forthcoming book." --AV Club "Moving, vivid, and thought-provoking, this second book is, if anything, even more brilliant than the first." --Buzzfeed "In the much-anticipated second installment...James has crafted yet another dark fantasy that blends history and mythology in an epic setting." -- TIME "[The] brilliant narrative device--seeing the story told in Black Leopard, Red Wolf from the perspective of an adversary and a woman--as well as a fascinating battle between different versions of empire, Moon Witch, Spider King delves into Sogolon's world as she fights to tell her own story. Part adventure tale, part chronicle of an indomitable woman who bows to no man, it is a fascinating novel that explores power, personality, and the places where they overlap." -- LGBTQ Reads, Praise for Moon Witch, Spider King : "This second volume in a projected trilogy set in a boldly imagined, opulently apportioned ancient Africa shows that the Booker Prize-winning novelist is building something deeper and more profoundly innovative within the swords-and-sorcery genre. . . . witty, richly textured, and musically captivating . . . .

Part adventure tale, part chronicle of an indomitable woman who bows to no man, it is a fascinating novel that explores power, personality, and the places where they overlap." -- LGBTQ Reads, Praise for Moon Witch, Spider King : "James''s imagination is vast and fiery, and his numerous fight scenes are heart-pumping and vivid. But what has stayed with me are his more subtle observations on the human condition. . . .The Moon Witch lit my path and showed me how a woman might navigate this dangerous, remarkable world. . . .When I finished the last page of Moon Witch, Spider King , I found my copy of Black Leopard, Red Wolf and started at the beginning." -- The New York Times Book Review "James is such a ferociously powerful and fast-paced storyteller that one rarely has time to worry about the grander scheme of the plot. . . .Galvanized by a vernacular writing style modeled on the oral tradition of African griots, the scenes are ribald, declamatory and quick to confrontation. Events are so crazed and swirling they become almost hallucinatory. . . .It is this trilogy''s prodigious passions, and not any obvious narrative purpose, that make it so gripping." -- The Wall Street Journal "Retelling the same story from a different perspective is not a gimmick here; it is a successful literary device that leads to a gripping narrative. . . .This is work that both meets the immersive worldbuilding standard in books by Tolkien and Martin and brings to the genre a voice unlike anything seen before. . . .If James managed to capture the imagination of readers with Black Leopard, Red Wolf , this second book, which is darker, longer, and better, does even more: It sets readers up for what will undoubtedly be a superb finale." -- The Boston Globe "More than 1,200 pages into James'' trilogy, one thing is clear: Moon Witch, Spider King is even better than Black Leopard, Red Wolf. . . . Not only could you read Moon Witch, Spider King first without missing a beat; it might even be a better introduction to James'' world. . . . Black Leopard, Red Wolf and Moon Witch, Spider King are wildly inventive, genre-defining works of fiction on the level of The Lord Of The Rings and the Broken Earth trilogy that deserve to be studied, dissected, and argued over." --AV Club "[A] medieval feast of dazzling fantasy. It''s vulgar and vivacious, big and brutal.....When I read the first book in this trilogy, I knew I was reading a genre-altering trilogy. . . .After reading Moon Witch, Spider King , I remain convinced that James is rebuilding the genre." -- Minneapolis Star-Tribune "The world created in these pages is wonderful, well-imagined, and in some ways very close to reality. . . .This is a beautiful novel with well-developed characters enmeshed in a very real and terrifying fight, not only for their lives but also against a cycle of life that repeats from generation to generation. . . .It''s impressive how much world-building and character development James manages in these pages." -- San Francisco Chronicle "James masterfully flips the first installment on its head. . . .Through Sogolon''s roving journeys across landscapes and decades, James makes the mythic tantalizingly real. . . .[A] titanic story of empire, adventure, and power." -- Esquire "Moving, vivid, and thought-provoking, this second book is, if anything, even more brilliant than the first." --Buzzfeed "In the much-anticipated second installment...James has crafted yet another dark fantasy that blends history and mythology in an epic setting." -- TIME "[The] brilliant narrative device--seeing the story told in Black Leopard, Red Wolf from the perspective of an adversary and a woman--as well as a fascinating battle between different versions of empire, Moon Witch, Spider King delves into Sogolon''s world as she fights to tell her own story.
