★★★★★


Five stars! This great story delivered something I've never seen before.

★★★★★

A true testament to the courage of the human heart.

Alberto Guaita Tello blends the magic traditions of African animism with notions of advanced technology and space-warping portals between planets.

Woven with breathtaking heart, The Eyes of the Sea captures the raw spirit of Africa, but Guaita Tello's work is a human story most of all - of love and loss, hope and pain, generosity and deceit, ambition and resourcefulness.

Classy, witty, and insightful!

In this savvy futuristic fantasy, Guaita Tello blends the magic traditions of African animism with notions of advanced technology and space-warping portals between planets.

It is classy, witty, and insightful, steeped in rich details and woven with breathtaking heart. Guaita Tello's unconventional storytelling also honors the oral traditions of Africa, weaving his novel through both prose and tales expressed in dialogue.

This book captures the raw spirit of Africa, probing the history of a plundered continent, the savage violence of warring nations, mistrust and the resilient kindness of people to whom life has not been kind.

But Guaita Tello's work is a human story most of all - of love and loss, hope and pain, generosity and deceit, ambition and resourcefulness. The Eyes of the Sea is a true testament to the courage of the human heart.
