There are six images: a sailing warship, a polluted dystopian city, a snarling Leopard, colossal trees, a crimson sunset, and a map. Across those images is the book's title, The Lost Rhythm of Drums.

18yo Ayala must declare her status as a woman by taking her tribe’s of-age trial: hunt giant synthetic beasts and face soul-crushing visions of her ancient African ancestor’s past—all for a nanobot spear and the right to marry the girl she loves #MoodPitch #LGBT #YA #R #SF #BVM

At the yearly Sealight ceremony, no boy wants to hear, “May the goddess of the deep guide you in the afterlife.” When Thomas does, and is left inside the sacred sea cave, he faces what swims in the dark, and fights it if he can. #A #BVM #F #OWN #PitMad

When Thomas’ name is plucked from the basket of glowing seaweed, tradition demands he leave his home, and like those chosen before him, be taken by the goddess of the deep. She might want him, but he'll fight to his last breath. #A #BVM #F #OWN #PITMAD
