When Dr. Tolu Johnson and Tokoni Beaton fell in love and announced their engagement, both families were very upset. Her widowed mother was afraid her daughter would meet much unhappiness as a result of disapproval and open hostility from Tolu's parents. The Johnsons insisted their son should marry a Yoruba girl, and Tokoni was an Ijaw.

The other side of Lagos! How can the parents of her son-in-law afford to dress well and expensively enough on her daughter's wedding day? Mina defies her mother and marries Richard, because she deeply loves him. But an initial compromise, a crack and a predictable crash. And a second chance!

This book is the first in a series about the adventures of Wayo, the Tortoise.Wayo means cunning in Pidgin language, (broken English as spoken by the Delta people of Nigeria).

The eighth event ended spectacularly, with Maple Tree and the game’s two best guilds teaming up in an epic boss battle. Now that things are quieting down, Maple and Sally head out to explore a hidden dungeon together—a flying castle where one false move spells death...for anyone else, at least. They take selfies, act like tourists, and enjoy the simple pleasures of just hanging out. However, that laid-back vibe may not last long with the appearance of new rivals: a girl wreathed in lightni...

Maple Tree has just reached the seventh stratum, and there’s only one thing on everyone’s minds— get every member of the guild their very own pet monster! There isn’t a moment to lose because the next event is about to begin, and pets are supposed to be critical! Since Maple already has Syrup and Sally has Oboro, they’re helping everyone else find their partners while exploring the massive new map. Of course, Maple still somehow finds a way to stumble into even more insanity!

BEGUN, THE GUILD WARS HAVE! With new allies and skills at the ready, Maple Tree embarks on their first event! The obvious favorites to take the crown are the big guilds like Flame Empire and the Order of the Holy Sword, each boasting well over a hundred members and some of the best players who topped the ranks in previous events. To make matters worse, everyone on the server has been stocking up on anti-Maple skills and items after her rise to infamy. For any hope of victory, Maple Tree wi...

The large-scale PvP event has reached unprecedented heights, with top players being eliminated even on the first day! Maple Tree and the Order’s next strat includes a plan to rain down insta-death poison over the enemy lines! With a lightning-fast strike by just three players—Maple, Sally, and Frederica—the enemy camp is thrown into chaos. Determined to take Maple out, they launch a counterattack, but...!?

Still feeling a bit sad for Sally, who missed out on the sixth layer, Maple proposes they try something fun for the seventh event. It'll be just the two of them, aiming to complete a no damage run with the odds against them and the difficulty set to max. What could possibly go wrong?

A WALKING NIGHTMARE FOR GAME DESIGN!Between easily beating the fifth stratum’s secret boss and keeping pace with the best players in the game, Maple continues to demonstrate exactly how broken she is. Unfortunately, things aren’t going as smoothly for Sally because the sixth stratum’s debut reveals a horror-themed level, meaning it’s chock-full of ghosts, geists, and ghouls! Wanting to do something nice for her partner who’s too terrified to even step onto the new map, Maple sets out to fi...

NEW DAY, NEW EXPANSION!After going toe-to-toe with two of the strongest guilds on the entire server, Maple Tree proved itself as a force to be reckoned with when they placed third overall in the latest event. That said, war isn’t all the guilds are good for! Maple and her friends have steadily grown closer to members of the Order of the Holy Sword and Flame Empire as their rivalries give way to something more. With new friends and powers, everyone is more than ready to dive headfirst into ...

A NEW STRATUM MEANS NEW MONSTERS ON THE MENU!The exciting large-scale PvP battle was full of challenges, forging bonds and deepening friendships between Maple Tree and the other top players. Now that it has come to a spectacular close, the game admins announce the opening of the tenth stratum. The map is the largest yet, and a super-boss is hiding somewhere in that vast area.
