When a precocious Guardian in Sector Z in New Inku'lulu-an elite space outpost-misuses her sound magic, the Guardians punish her by stripping away her magical ability.
Chant'L is exiled to Savage Mound, a sound island on planet Wiimb-ó. She discovers that magic is inborn, never truly lost or taken, and summons the Nga'phandileh, creatures of unreality. But her magic is more than she bargained for.
Now the Guardians in Sector Z find themselves with a massive catastrophe they must not only keep secret, but resolve.
A science fiction horror from an award-winning queen of Afro-Irreal genre bending.
A glossary of Bantu, Afrocentric and authorly-crafted words complements this genre-bending, cross-cultural novella. Something beautiful, something dark in lyrical language packed with affection, dread, anguish and hope.
