A must read book.

interesting read

An enigmatic word-picture....raised to perfection.

2 stars because I didn't like the paper color. It was whitish instead of the off-white color generally used for books.

Arrow of God is one of Chinua Achebe’s books that I enjoyed a lot. In fact, it is just as good as Things Fall Apart, if not better. The story is based on the exotic traditional village culture of the Igbo nation in Western Nigeria. It is one of the African best literary works I have read. Achebe took us into Ezeulu's changing world and did what few writers can do- make us understand it all. It reminded me of other traditional African stories such as Usurper and Other Stories, Matigari, Our Sister Killjoy. Through these stories about Africa that I enjoyed reading, the authors gave the reader a fascinating insight into the continent and are likely to make lovers of African literature many of the readers.
