Celebrated authors Shobo & Shof (New Masters) draw from their Nigerian heritage for the heist of a lifetime in this timely, thrilling tale weaving together mythology, history, and the horrors of colonialism.
Soho, London. Childhood friends Timi, Sango, and Gbonka reunite on the eve of the British Museum's historic purchase of the works of Timi's father, the seminal Nigerian artist Adewale Balogun.
Timi has been invited as a "guest of honor," but what the Museum is heralding as a triumphant acquisition, the trio see as nothing short of brazen cultural theft. Emboldened by a night of drinking and shared outrage, they concoct a bold scheme... to steal back the artwork themselves!

I recieved a copy of this book thanks to NetGalley and BOOM! Studios. I am leaving an honest review voluntarily. I wanted to like this one, and I did enjoy parts. The main focus of the story, and the ties to the myth were really neat. Also the art was beautiful, especially the details around the panels on occasion. However, the convoluted time jumps back and forth, as well as the business of the panels and sheer amount of texts makes these story difficult to follow. I think it could have been slowed down and filled out more.
