An exiled, illegitimate son becomes a brilliant Zulu warrior, trades the woman he loves for a sorcerer's promise of unstoppable power, and rules as a conquering king until his own brothers' spears answer his spiraling cruelty.

The white man is coming, and it is he who will rule you, and you will be his servants.
Chaka, Thomas Mofolo
