One Way Witch

Praise for the She Who Knows trilogy

“Okorafor packs a punch in her She Who Knows series launch, a return to the realm of the World Fantasy Award–winning Who Fears Death . . . Fans of Who Fears Death will appreciate the return to this rich, fully realized world, but Okorafor keeps things accessible enough that this works just as well on its own. Readers will devour this.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“As always with Okorafor’s work, the prose is sharp and immersive, the characters provide insight into family drama and healing, and the narrative seamlessly blends elements of fantasy, folklore, and speculative fiction . . . While this book may be short, its impact is anything but small.”
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“A new work from Africanfuturist Okorafor is always an event for speculative-fiction fans.”
—Ashley Rayner, Booklist

“She Who Knows is a surprisingly intimate novel . . . [A] tale of courage and defiance, and one that is eminently readable even to those unfamiliar with Who Fears Death.”
—Gary K. Wolfe, Locus

Praise for Nnedi Okorafor

“An epic collision of new tech and elemental magic—suspensful, immersive, and chillingly relevant. Another stunning feat of imagination from Nnedi Okorafor.”
—Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Ninth House

“Nnedi Okorafor writes glorious futures and fabulous fantasies. Her worlds open your mind to new things, always rooted in the red clay of reality.”
—Neil Gaiman, New York Times-bestselling author of American Gods

“Haunting and absolutely brilliant. My heart and guts are all turned inside out.”
—John Green, New York Times-bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars

“Shadow Speaker is wonderful, highly original stuff, episode after amazing episode, full of color, life and death… Nnedi also deals head-on with the fact that power and pain are closely linked, as are magic and blood. I think this book is marvelous.”
—Diana Wynne Jones, author of Howl’s Moving Castle

“There’s more vivid imagination in a page of Nnedi Okorafor’s work than in whole volumes of ordinary fantasy epics.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin, author of The Left Hand of Darkness

“Shadow Speaker is endlessly imaginative, full of mystery and delight on every page. Nnedi Okorafor is a voice that will delight readers of all ages and backgrounds.”
—Tananarive Due, American Book Award-winning author of The Reformatory

“Like Thunder is an excellent demonstration of [Okorafor’s] gifts as a novelist: it is inventive, fast-paced, and deeply concerned with difficult journeys to self-discovery, as well as the transformative costs of such adventures.”
—Los Angeles Review of Books
