From the Publisher

New wave lazarus ( A story of African Gods)

Igbo Sun God (Anyanwwu) the Eye of light

The word anyanwwu is a combination of two Igbo words: The first word is anya which means “eye” and anwu which means “the light”. Put together, it means “the eye of the light”. However, going beyond the literal meaning,

Anyawu means the sun. And in Igbo traditional religion, it refers to the god of the Sun or the Sun god, who is referred to as the eye of the light. Going beyond the literal understanding of the eye for sight, the theology of Anyawu has implications for the human enlightenment, our vision and our

foresight.

Metaphorically, this sight represents itself as insight,

which is the capacity to gain an accurate and deep intuitive

understanding of a person or thing, and foresight, the ability to

predict what will happen or be needed in the future.

In short, insight is the ability to see things as they really are, and foresight is the ability to see things as they will be. If this be the case, Anyawu was a deity that had the power to inspire insight and foresight in people.

Anyanwwu

Anyanwwu is an Alusi(meaning diety) of Rebirth

Eshu (yoruba Mythology)

(God of Mischief, Death, Chaos, crossroads& Travelers)

Èṣù is a personification of Mischief; he is the one who teaches that there are always two sides or more to every issue. He balanced and created directions. Èṣù is so necessary to an ordered life! According to Oluwo Aderemi Ifaoleepin Aderemi from Oyo Alaafin, to the criminally minded who celebrate wickedness, injustice, and immorality and unrighteous people, Èṣù Láàlù is evil and devilish, whilst Láaróyè Ajọ́ńgọ́lọ̀ Ọkùnrin Òde is an awesome and persuasive Divinity to pious and morally upright people who place a premium on justice, morality, and good character.

Èṣù is the messenger not only to the Olódùmarè, but also to the other Irúnmọlẹ̀s/Òrìṣàs. He is also the intermediary between Ajoguns (evil spirits) to the Irúnmọlẹ̀s/Òrìṣàs and the ẹ̀dá èèyàn (human beings); he is the one who distributes, and also supervises the distribution of sacrifices (ẹbọ) to the Ajoguns.

Eshu's Avatar is usually in form of an old man or a boy Child.

    This is a marvelous work of art in which the author carefully and meticulously gave life to the art of fiction. The story is deeply compelling and eye-popping, leavng the reader in suspense and asking for more. A good insight into the world of university campus living in that part of the world. What a story to behold. An interesting read. Highly recommend.

    I love this book so much. The author captured a part of the African history that is so unfamiliar but yet thrilling and packed with informative content on the cultural significance of the belief of the original Africans. The way African Gods and the societal conception of hero’s and villains are portrayed are so engaging and sensational. It’s hard to imagine why Mr. Alex E Chile is not yet a New York best seller because I truly wish he gets there ;) thanks for a good read.
