Thank you to Netgalley and Tor Books for the arc of this book in return for my honest review!

Africa Risen is a great anthology of stories spanning many different genres. There is fantasy, sci-fi, horror, and more, I’m sure there’s a story for everyone in here. There is a large quantity of stories in here so no doubt you will enjoy at least one, however I did find that it also had a range of quality. I wouldn’t say that any story was bad, however there were a good number that either failed to capture my interest, I failed to connect with, or with a few of them, I felt were meant to be longer stories, perhaps even full length novels. In the last case, I found that particularly for the sci-fi stories, often many terms and technology were introduced that it became hard to follow for just a short story. 
Aside from these minor issues I had, I found the stories to be very well written and interesting, they touched on many real world issues and history in a very unique way, and there were a lot that I thought were really good. I would highly recommend this to anyone, particularly fans of sci-fi and horror who are interested in looking into a short story collection. 
I think this is a great way to showcase many very talented authors and for readers to get an introduction to their writing.
I gave this 3.75 stars, rounded up to 4.

To anyone interested in the audiobook, I thought the narrators did an excellent job of bringing to stories to life. Some maybe more than others, mainly just because I think certain stories would have been better suited to one of the other narrators, but they still did a good job. I appreciated that they did alternated through the narrators every story, I think it really helped to separate them.
