A great Sci-fi, Afrofuturism short story. I love that the world building isn't too complicated and complex and I that I was able to understand and appreciate Okorafor's writing without feeling too overwhelmed with the information and conflict of the book. I liked Binti and Okwu as characters even though I was a bit confused about who the Meduse were at first and how they got on the Khoush ship to begin with, but it was good to understand the inner conflict between Oomza Uni and the Meduse. Really would like to read more from Okorafor since I like the way she writes, will definitely read more from her.
