I can’t wait to see what else Nnedi Okorafor has in store because this sequel is an excellent continuation of the first. As with the first, I love the exploration of Nigerian mythology, the continuous surprising, the character development, the adventure, and how the characters all feel so different from each other. Honestly I plowed straight into Akata Woman so I can’t fully remember what happened in this book vs the third, but what a ride it was, and well worth it.
The one thing I didn’t love was the love triangle between three characters, but it at least felt realistic to the characters involved, and it didn’t take up a ton of plot.
