I thought that this was going to be entirely Afrofuturistic-which I think it could still be partially. But I was shocked to hear about white people in the book (they have another name) and to read about some colonizational/classism. My suprise aside-this book is well written and fully immerses the reader in this future world! I’m glad I don’t have to wait the other books because I’m super impatient to find out how the rest of the story! If you like science fiction-this is a must read.
