ROCK OF THE FIRST WIFE by Ben O. Okech
Rock of the first wife (Kit Mikayi) stems from the rocky ridges of Seme.When young Okello and Nyowila meet at a festival organized by the great chief, their united passion leads down a destructive path. Their union brings on them a curse so great that only Nyowila sacrificing herself at the great rock can restrain the Chira. Years later, however, destiny seems to have a similar course for the life of their son, proving what the villagers have always deemed true: a curse never really goes away; it just stays in the blood, waiting to be resuscitated and flow through the generations.

Eastern Butterfly by Sandra Nekh
The Eti, of little known East African monarchy Kdzigu Ety, are proud to possess a remarkable self-contained culture. They are an independent nation, developed from the split of the 18th Century Kingdom of Kidzigu Eti ―The Butterfly― to become Kdzigu Ety in the East and Mammor in the West.
A jaded old-timer American journalist, Aaron ‘Pelle’ Carter, travels to Kdzigu Ety searching for a career-defining story. The region is vibrant and alive, courtesy of the annual harvest festival and a Royal wedding. Mr. Carter relishes the idea of documenting a post-modern monarchical wedding ceremony though his true interests lie in the Butterfly’s aging patriarchal sovereigns ―Ikha Saram of Kdzigu Ety and Aba Naifa of Mammor, and their heirs, the Eastern Princess ―the Sifakh Lateiya Saram― and the Western Prince ―the Bukizo Kasim Naifa.
Beyond the Butterfly’s brilliance in propelling the African narrative, there lay secrets, and deviations that could change the fate of the whole region.
