"[A] magnificent and wide-ranging anthology . . . A must-read
for all genre fans."--Publishers Weekly, starred review
**
From award-winning editorial team Sheree Renée Thomas, Oghenechovwe
Donald Ekpeki, and Zelda Knight comes an anthology of thirty-two
original stories showcasing the breadth of fantasy and science fiction
from Africa and the African Diaspora.**
A group of cabinet ministers query a supercomputer containing the minds
of the country's ancestors. A child robot on a dying planet uncovers
signs of fragile new life. A descendent of a rain goddess inherits her
grandmother's ability to change her appearance--and perhaps the world.
Created in the legacy of the seminal, award-winning anthology series
Dark Matter, Africa Risen celebrates the vibrancy, diversity, and
reach of African and Afro-Diasporic SFF and reaffirms that Africa is not
rising--it's already here.
