Critics Review

Part thriller, part mystery and part phantasmagoric journey across a strange yet not-too-distant future, and reminiscent at times of both Roger Zelazny and Nnedi Okorafor, Rosewater is the hardboiled, Nigerian alien invasion story you always wanted

A character-driven, morally grey tale of hope and potential redemption

This thrilling, ambitious novel offers a deftly woven and incisive blend of science fiction, psychology, action and mystery. Highly recommended
