| Abstract | Publisher Annotation: Haunted by vengeance. Destined for peace. Niger, West Africa, 2074 When fifteen-year old Ejii witnesses her father’s beheading, her world shatters. In a time of mind-blowing technology and seductive mysticism, Ejii embarks on a journey to track down her father’s killer. With a newfound friend by her side, Ejii comes face to face with an earth turned inside out — and with her own mystical ability. And then she discovers that her travels across the sands of the Sahara have a deeper purpose. Nnedi Okorafor says this about Shadow Speaker: “An unexpected apocalypse, spontaneous forests, polyandry, strange insects, fast cars, a new type of Sahara Desert, male beauty contests, death, robust chiefs schooled in martial arts, crafty assassins, this novel has many lives.” FIRST BOOK IN A NEW SERIES Desert magician's duology series, 336pp., 100K |
