A Queen from Slavery is a gripping hybrid novel that blends historical imagination, feminist resistance, and African oral tradition to tell the story of Siwe, a girl born into slavery who rises to become a revolutionary leader and memory keeper for her people.

The novel begins in the midst of bondage. Siwe is born into slavery on African soil. From an early age, her spirit burns with ancestral fury, and a prophecy hints at her rise to power. After facing the horrors of capture, branding, and the Middle Passage, She not only survives but also becomes a symbol of resistance.

However, the journey to freedom is not straightforward. The novel spans generations, following the struggles both personal and collective that shape the identity of a new nation. From betrayals and colonial invasions to memory battles and spiritual reckonings, Siwe’s story serves as a testament to endurance, sacrifice, and legacy.

Blending fiction with historical insight, A Queen from Slavery is more than a story of survival; it is one of leadership, rebirth, and shared healing. It places African women at the center of history and confronts the erasure of their stories.

A Queen from Slavery tells the powerful story of a women who escapes enslavement and rises to leadership, reclaiming her voice and strength in a world that seeks to silence her.
