If this is the future of speculative fiction we're in safe hands." - Sarah Lotz author of <em>Day Four</em>.<br /><br />"I loved every minute of it. A bouquet with Africa's finest bring futures seen from African perspectives. Refreshing surprising magical grim and beautiful. There is a pulse throbbing through these stories that insists you follow along." - Margrét Helgadóttir author of <em>The Stars Seem So Far Away</em>.<br /><br />"There was a time when William Gibson said: 'The future is already here it's just not very evenly distributed.' Then came Ian McDonald who replied: 'The future is actually evenly distributed - as everyone from Nigeria to America from China to India gets the same iPhone at the same time - it's just that other people are doing more interesting and funky things with it.' So as the Future arrives everywhere be prepared to read AfroSFv2 stories a brilliant mixture of emerging voices from the vanishing peripheral of the world." - Francesco Verso author of <em>Nexhuman</em> and editor of <em>Future Fiction</em>.</p>
