The great Ursula K. Le Guin said of Nnedi Okorafor that ‘There’s more vivid imagination in a page of Nnedi Okorafor’s work than in whole volumes of ordinary fantasy epics’. This extract from her Tor.com novella Binti amounts to a few pages. You do the maths.

Two incredible novels publish in paperback today: Red Rising, by Pierce Brown, and Lagoon, by Nnedi Okorafor. We’ve spent a lot of time here on Hodderscape talking about both – for example, we visited with Pierce to discuss your burning questions about the Red Rising trilogy and we spoke with Joey Hi-Fi, who produced the extraordinary coverart for Lagoon. (A quick dip into the archives will reveal many more gems, including Pierce Brown’s writing soundtrack and a taste of the many, many phenomonal reviews Lagoon has received.)
