Review
"Perhaps, then, the most interesting thing about this anthology is how stark a light it sheds on the world around us. Whether they are calling our attention to louder things like climate change, or quieter things like the sound of the rain or cuts on people’s arms – the stories in this anthology give context and new perspective to many old puzzles."
- Michael Onsando, Brainstorm
I must praise the beautiful cover art by Kenyan digital artist, animator and illustrator, Peter Marco, which illustrates Andrew Dakalira’s “Rise of the Akafula” perfectly. His art is sharp, well-composed and lovely to look at. I hope to see more of his work illustrating the African speculative in the future.
