“In this vibrant collection of speculative fiction…we visit various takes on the future of Africa, many of which are equally as bleak as the past. Each story is as carefully crafted as the last…With a knack for dialogue and an ambitious imagination, Okorafor effortlessly blends original characters with fantastical elements into the vivid scenery of Africa to create stories worth reading again and again.” Publishers Weekly (starred review)
