Part myth, part historical fiction, and completely magical, She Would Be King is a historical reimagining of Liberia's founding. It volleys between Africa and America, using folkloric tradition and magic to weave the two together. It's the genre-bending read you'll want to curl up with on a Sunday and leaves enough to the imagination that you'll be left wondering how it all happened in real life.
