Tuhle slátaninu jsem vydržel číst jen silou vůle, ale za půlkou jsem to odpískal. Zařazení do sci-fi je naprosto mimo. Je to o partě mladých lidí, kteří žijí ve světě kde jsou dvě rasy v genocidní válce. Hlavní hrdinka je plod znásilnění, přesto nebo právě proto se stává čarodějkou. První půlka byla o zabíjení, ženské obřízce a znásilňování. Pak se tahle obřezaná partička vydává pomstít se za ty masakry. Není vysvětleno jak vypadá svět a proč to jako má být post apo. Pro mě to byl popis standardní války jak je u Afričanů obvyklé. Zbytečná kniha
Více o knize
An award-winning literary author explores magical realism in a post-apocalyptic Africa, now optioned for an HBO series with George R.R. Martin as executive producer. In this transformed world, genocide still stains the land. A woman, having survived the destruction of her village and a brutal rape by an enemy general, wanders into the desert, seeking death. Instead, she gives birth to a daughter, Onyesonwu, meaning 'Who fears death?' in an ancient tongue. Recognizing her daughter as special, the mother hopes for a different fate. However, Onye is marked by her conception as Ewu—a child of rape, destined for a life of violence and rejection. Yet, she defies expectations; even as a child, she exhibits unique magical abilities. As she matures, her powers grow, and during an unintentional journey to the spirit realm, she uncovers a chilling truth: someone powerful wishes to kill her. To escape her would-be assassin and understand her identity, Onye embarks on a quest that challenges her relationship with nature, tradition, and history. Through love and the spiritual mysteries of her culture, she ultimately discovers the significance of her name and the strength within her.
