Baptism Of Blood

THE GOD OF THUNDER The night Egba Kingdom drowned in blood, a five-year-old crown prince vanished into the storm. Omoba Omogun Ogunwole, heir to the throne, watched his parents—King Oluwole and Queen Titilayo—betrayed and murdered by their own chiefs. Presumed dead, the child escaped into the mountains with a loyal servant, where fate answered his grief. For twenty years, Omogun trained under seven ancient spirits, learning not only the power of thunder, but the price of justice, humility, and restraint. When he returns to Egba Kingdom, his uncle—now a tyrant king—rules through fear and corruption. Hiding his identity, Omogun walks among his people as a nobody by day… and as the masked God of Thunder by night. As he punishes evil, protects the weak, and builds a secret army of ten thousand empowered warriors, enemies close in. Dark divination whispers his survival. Betrayers resurface. Love tests his heart when he is rejected for poverty—and later cherished for who he truly is. When the storm finally breaks, the truth will be revealed, crowns will fall, and justice will strike like lightning. In a world where power corrupts, can a man chosen by thunder remain human?
