Starting in a background of biting poverty and an abusive father, Wahito drops out of school after her primary education and gets a low paying job after another.
Meanwhile, evil clouds are hanging over her horizons.

In the end, all (of almost all) the pieces of Wahitos' chequered life fall into place and she seems to lead an exciting, happy prosperous life. But then, one never knows what happens next in Wahito's life.

Wisdom Shall Die With You by Daudi Ju...
Eduardo Kariuki is conceived and born out of wedlock in Kenya. His German
mother leaves the child with a foster mother.
Whether the youngster will merely survive or thrive will depend on his desire to
conquer the fears and doubts he faces, as a boy and then as a young man.
Kariuki’s search for meaning in life takes him from Nairobi to Frankfurt, then to
Freiburg im Breisgau and Habkern, Switzerland. He is back in Kenya in no time at all.
But there is something still missing in his life. There is one more hurdle he must assail.
Wisdom Shall Die With You is a coming-of-age narrative that seamlessly weaves
laugh-out-loud episodes of youthful exuberance and a touching love story with horror
and heart-rending tragedy. It is a classic tale of the ages that will remain with you long
after you have turned the last page.
“Stunning narrative voice in this bitter-sweet journey of a young man seeking his mother,
identity, and meaning in the world. Eduardo takes the reader from Africa to Europe, in to heartache
and out the other side. This was a stunning read. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an
authentic tell cased in lovely writing.” Chloe Holiday, Amazon reviewer.
Snippet on leadership: Pg 120:
"Kariuki had once come across a picture story some-
where, depicting some of the challenges of leadership.
A person on a raised podium addressed a group of
people.
“Who wants change?” the fellow asked.
Every one of his listeners promptly raised his hand.
“Who wants to change?”
Here the speaker encountered a minor crisis. Not a single
person raised their hand. Everyone looked at their shoes.
But that was nothing, considering what happened when he
asked his next question.
“Who wants to lead the change?”
The crowd of people dissolved into thin air, leaving the guy
on the podium alone. Every one of the gathered people peeled
away as fast as they could, unable to deal with the possibility,
or probability, that they could orchestrate a process of change.
Kariuki wondered what aspect of the leadership equation was
so scary that it could melt away a mammoth crowd in seconds.
What was it with leadership?"

AFRICANUM + SHADOW WALKERS Book Combo
A special gift package diving into the mythology and fantasy worlds built by Mutendei Writes, consisting of AFRICANUM and SHADOW WALKERS: THE GLORY OF KINGS.
The first book of the two, AFRICANUM, is centered on an alternate reality, where ancient magic arises and restores Africa and its descendants as the centre of a new geo-political alignment where Africa exists as the world's leading superpower. In the alternate reality, a quadruple set of super-powered beings emerge, anointed by The Akhamasi, an immortal sect of African sorcerers who awaken to a disheartening state of an Africa fallen from grace. Not accepting the fallacy of this alternate reality, through their use of their ancient magic and acolytes, they work to restore Africa and its descendants as the centre of a new geo-political alignment where Africa exists as the world's leading superpower, under the moniker of AFRICANUM, symbolized by its chief defender of the same name.
The second book in the combo is Shadow Walkers: The Glory of Kings, which encapsulates the Azuni vs. Okuzuni War between African gods. Shadow Walkers – The Glory of Kings is a fantasy adventure story based on the mythological cultural gods and legends of Africa alongside real-life heroes and Kingdoms, where a pantheon of gods, The Azuni, seek to restore order amongst themselves while plagued by the return of an ancient enemy, the Okuzuni lead by the fierce Kizamen.
