I can't believe it took me so long to read more or Nnedi Okorafor. I think I was a bit worried to branch beyond her middle grade books because her writing can absolutely range into the realm of dark. Which it does. But it's brilliant anyway.
This is such a hard book to describe, but I will say that Okorafor's ability to sketch out a world entirely through the characters who populate it is amazing. I want more spec fic like this, even if I need a bit of a break to read something a bit more cheerful
Fortunately, the prequel to this book just came out...
