"In the highly anticipated follow-up to the acclaimed 2021 anthology descibed as containing "some of the most exciting voices, old and new, from Africa and the diaspora, published in the 2020 year," readers will be blown away by the caliber of stories and poems collected in this exciting new volume. The Year's Best African Speculative Fiction 2021 won the World Fantasy Award for best anthology and was met with widespread critical acclaim from all around the globe, with the science fiction trade magazine, Locus, calling it a "must read." Multiple award-winning editor Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki, who created the first anthology, now joins forces with Eugen Bacon, a 2023 British Fantasy Award winner, and Milton Davis, an award-winning black speculative fiction writer and editor, to introduce readers to an ever more diverse list of authors associated with Africa. Timely and relevant to today's world, the fiction selected for this book will astonish, shock and amaze readers, while introducing them to rich cultures and vibrant characters that push the envelope." -- back cover
