Produktbeschreibung
When Chant'L, a young and precocious Guardian in New Inku'lulu-an elite space outpost of planet Zezépfeni-misuses her sound magic, the Guardians punish her by stripping away her magical ability, and exiling her to Savage Mound, a sound island on another planet, Wiimb-ó. The Guardians have a vital role to secure a secret border-the Hogiiri Hile Halah, a proactive invisible wall-protecting the federation of planets from the Nga'phandileh, creatures of unreality. But imprisoned Chant'L discovers that sound magic is inborn-never truly lost or taken. She channels energy from two spirit moons and, in an act of revenge, summons a creature of unreality to wreak havoc on the planets. Only her magic is flawed and she gets more than she bargained for when a trinity of Nga'phandileh slips from unreality, and is more uncontained than anyone could have imagined.Now the Guardians in Sector Z find themselves with a bigger problem they must not only keep secret, but resolve. A glossary of Bantu, Afrocentric and made-up words complements this genre-bending, cross-cultural novella. Something beautiful, something dark in lyrical language packed with affection, dread, anguish and hope.
