Her name is Binti, and she is the first of the Himba people ever to be
offered a place at Oomza University, the finest institution of higher
learning in the galaxy. But to accept the offer will mean giving up her
place in her family to travel between the stars among strangers who do
not share her ways or respect her customs.
Knowledge comes at a
cost, one that Binti is willing to pay, but her journey will not be
easy. The world she seeks to enter has long warred with the Meduse, an
alien race that has become the stuff of nightmares. Oomza University has
wronged the Meduse, and Binti\'s stellar travel will bring her within
their deadly reach.
If Binti hopes to survive the legacy of a
war not of her making, she will need both the the gifts of her people
and the wisdom enshrined within the University, itself — but first she has to make it there, alive.
PRAISE FOR BINTI
\"Binti is a supreme read about a sexy, edgy Afropolitan in space! It\'s a wondrous combination of extra-terrestrial adventure and age-old African diplomacy. Unforgettable!\" — Wanuri Kahiu, award-winning Kenyan film director of Punzi and From a Whisper
