Overview
"An epic collision of new tech and elemental magicāsuspenseful, immersive, and chillingly relevant. Another stunning feat of imagination fromĀ NnediĀ Okorafor." āLeigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Ninth House
Niger, West Africa, 2077
Ā
Welcome back. This second volume is a breathtaking story that sweeps across the sands of the Sahara, flies up to the peaks of the AĆÆr Mountains, cartwheels into a wild megacityāyou get the idea.
Ā
I am the Desert Magician; I bring water where there is none.
Ā
This book begins with DikĆ©ogu Obidimkpa slowly losing his mind. Yes, that boy who can bring rain just by thinking about it is having someā¦issues. Years ago, DikĆ©ogu went on an epic journey to save Earth with the shadow speaker girl, Ejii Ubaid, who became his best friend. When it was all over, they went their separate ways, but now heās learned their quest never really ended at all.
Ā
So DikĆ©ogu, more powerful than ever, reunites with Ejii. He records this story as an audiofile, hoping it will help him keep his sanity or at least give him something to leave behind. Smart kid, but it wonāt workāor will it?
Ā
I can tell you this: it wonāt be like before. Our rainmaker and shadow speaker have changed. And after this, nothing will ever be the same again.
Ā
As they say, āOnye amaro ebe nmili si bido mabaya ama ama onye nyelu ya akwa oji welu ficha aru.ā
Ā
Or, āIf you do not remember where the rain started to beat you, you will not remember who gave you the towel with which to dry your body.ā
