Book 3: Binti: The Night Masquerade Praise for Nnedi Okorafor: 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 Pumzi and From a Whisper A perfect dove-tailing of tribal and futuristic, of sentient space ships and ancient cultural traditions, Binti was a beautiful story to read." - Little Red Reviewer "Binti is a wonderful and memorable coming of age story which, to paraphrase Lord of the Rings, shows that one girl can change the course of the galaxy." - Geek Syndicate "Binti packs a punch because it is such a rich, complex tale of identity, both personal and cultural... and like all of Nnedi Okorafor's works, this one is also highly, highly recommended." - Kirkus Reviews There's more vivid imagination in a page of Nnedi Okorafor's work than in whole volumes of ordinary fantasy epics. -Ursula Le Guin Okorafor's impressive inventiveness never flags. - Gary K. Wolfe on Lagoon

Descriere
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.
