*From the author of The Reformatory—A New York Times Notable Book of 2023*

Bestselling and award-winning author Tananarive Due's heart-stopping novel that continues the story of descendants of an immortal line of people who are the only ones capable of saving the world.

Fana, an immortal with tremendous telepathic abilities, is locked in a battle of wills. Her fiancé is Michel. But Johnny Wright, a mortal who is in love with her, believes that if she doesn’t stay away from Michel, they will become the Witnesses to the Apocalypse described in the Book of Revelation.

Fana and the Life Brothers are rushing to distribute their healing “Living Blood” throughout the world, hoping to eliminate most diseases before Fana is bound to marry Michel. Still, they cannot heal people faster than Michel can kill them. Due weaves a tangled web in this novel, including beloved characters from her bestselling Joplin’s Ghost, in a war of good against evil, making My Soul to Take a chilling and thrilling experience.

    This series was excellent. The combination of fantasy and everyday life made it almost seem possible.

    This series is too good to end; I pray there is another title coming soon. I mean. If Dawit & Jessica have another child there must be a story to tell and I'm sure Johnny still has an unfulfilled purpose:-)
  • Disappointing

    There are too many characters she follows, it is very cheesey, and the improper capitalization gets to me. It took me so long to read because it is just stupid.

    Due weaves strength and truth throughout her narratives, challenging established conventions and exploding our sense of normalcy. Her characters are charged with energy, and you care what happens to them. This last narrative is a fitting end to a most provocative re-invention.
