Blood Scion is a 2022 young adult fantasy novel by Nigerian Canadian writer Deborah Falaye.[1][2] Falaye's debut novel, inspired by Nigerian and Yoruba mythology, was published on 8 March 2022 by HarperTeen, an imprint of HarperCollins as the first book in a planned series.[3][4]
Writing the book over 10 years, Falaye drew inspiration from novels like Things Fall Apart, A Long Way Gone and They Fight Like Soldiers, They Die Like Children and as well as West African mythology and the Yoruba culture and language.[5] The kidnapping of school girls in Nigeria by terrorists, colonization and the trauma felt by child soldiers settling after years of war and conflict motivated her to develop the story of Blood Scion.[5]
