Synopsis

★ “A tremendous return.”—Kirkus Reviews Return to a world of Caribbean folklore, daring adventure, and ancient magic in this heart-pounding installment of the Jumbies series, from New York Times bestselling author Tracey Baptiste. Huracan summons the wind and rain and wields lightning like a sword. He doesn’t miss and he never falters. He will destroy everything in his path if he desires. When an out-of-season hurricane sweeps through Corinne’s seaside village, she knows it’s not an ordinary storm. At first Corinne believes Mama D’Leau, the powerful and cruel jumbie who rules the ocean, has caused the hurricane. Then an even more ferocious storm wrecks the island, sending villagers fleeing their houses for shelter in the mountains, and Corinne discovers the chaos wasn’t caused by a jumbie, but by an angry god, Huracan. Corinne, with the help of her friends and even some of her enemies, must race against time to find out what has angered Huracan and try to fix it before her island home is destroyed forever. The Jumbie God’s Revenge blends Caribbean and West African tales to present powerful themes of community and heroism in a thrilling action adventure.

The Jumbie God's Revenge is a pretty good Middle Grade book.

Goodreads review by Celia on April 05, 2024

This definitely had a lot going on. It kind of tied everything together nicely, but it really dragged. There was a lot that I couldn't really follow here. It was hard to tell what was going on with Corinne. A lot of it seemed thrown together haphazardly and didn't really have much purpose. I did like......more

Goodreads review by exorcismemily on August 12, 2019

The Jumbie God's Revenge is the third installment in The Jumbies series. This one was okay. It took me a while to get invested in the story, and I don't feel like much happened in this book. The second half was more interesting to me, though. I know there wasn't a plan for a third Jumbies book origi......more
