Thanks, Flo! I'm enjoying the book, although I haven't gotten very far, yet. I look forward to seeing what adventures Ugwu will face, and how he will respond to them.
I'm also looking forward to reading more about the food. In the last scene, he searched for and found an herb, arigbe, which he used in a stew for it's magical properties. I now know, thank's to the magic of the internet, that arigbe is an African basil. I wonder if we could grow this alongside our other varieties of basil.
