- December 1976. Våldsamma politiska stridigheter pågår i Jamaica, och det är bara ett par veckor kvar till valet, när sju beväpnade män stormar in i Bob Marleys hem i Kingston. Ingen av männen bakom mordförsöket grips, men ryktet säger att sångaren har blivit en bricka i ett spel med intressen långt utanför landets gränser.Papa-Lo är don över gettot Copenhagen City och vill få ett slut på striderna med Shotta Sherrif i Eight Lanes, men alla tycker inte att fred är någon bra idé. Weeper kommer ut ur fängelset. På gatan pratas det om att han har blivit en battyboy. Utanför Bob Marleys hus på Hope Road väntar Nina Burgess på att han ska känna igen henne, medan Rolling Stone-journalisten Alex Pierce jagar en story som ingen tycks vilja att han får tag i.Marlon James tar sin utgångspunkt i verklighetens attentat mot Bob Marley, i en berättelse om mördare, politiker och langare, CIA-agenter, journalister och bedragare. En brutal och intensiv roman om musik, droger, sex och våld, som rör sig från sjuttiotal till nittiotal, från Jamaica till New York via Miami och Kuba. Belönad med Man Booker-priset.

- 'Black Leopard, Red Wolf is the kind of novel I never realized I was missing until I read it. A dangerous, hallucinatory, ancient Africa, which becomes a fantasy world as well-realized as anything Tolkien made, with language as powerful as Angela Carter's. I cannot wait for the next installment' Neil Gaiman In this stunning follow-up to his Man Booker-winning A Brief History of Seven Killings, Marlon James draws on a rich tradition of African mythology, fantasy and history to imagine an ancient world, a lost child, an extraordinary hunter, and a mystery with many answers... 'The child is dead. There is nothing left to know.' Tracker is a hunter, known throughout the thirteen kingdoms as one who has a nose - and he always works alone. But he breaks his own rule when, hired to find a lost child, he finds himself part of a group of hunters all searching for the same boy. Each of these companions is stranger and more dangerous than the last, from a giant to a witch to a shape-shifting Leopard, and each has secrets of their own. As the mismatched gang follow the boy's scent from perfumed citadels to infested rivers to the enchanted darklands and beyond, set upon at every turn by creatures intent on destroying them, Tracker starts to wonder: who really is this mysterious boy? Why do so many people want to stop him being found? And, most important of all, who is telling the truth and who is lying? Marlon James weaves a tapestry of breathtaking adventure through a world at once ancient and startlingly modern. And, against this exhilarating backdrop of magic and violence, he explores the fundamentals of truth, the limits of power, the excesses of ambition, and our need to understand them all. Black Leopard, Red Wolf is the first novel in Marlon James's Dark Star Trilogy. 'A game-changing modern fantasy classic' Financial Times 'Complex, lyrical, moving and furiously gripping... This new book will propel James into a new galaxy of literary stardom' Observer 'To call this novel original doesn't do [it] justice... James has thrown African cultures, mythologies, religions, histories, world-views and topographies into the mighty cauldron of his imagination to create a work of literary magic' New Statesman

- In this mighty follow-up to his number one bestseller Black Leopard, Red Wolf, Booker-winner Marlon James once again draws on a rich tradition of African mythology, fantasy and history to tell the story of Sogolon the Moon Witch. Part adventure story, part tale of an indomitable woman, Moon Witch, Spider King chronicles the antagonist-turned-antihero's journey from an ostracised no-name girl, hated by her brothers and made to live in a termite hill, to a woman with fully developed powers engaged in a long-standing feud with the Aesi, chancellor to the king. Offering Sogolon's version of the events of Black Leopard, Red Wolf, Moon Witch, Spider King is an unforgettable exploration of power, resistance and revenge set in a world at once ancient and startlingly modern.
