Supernatural Sci-Fi Short

There is witchcraft in science and a science to witchcraft. Both will conspire against you eventually.

HELLO, MOTO by Nnedi Okorafor is a flash fiction piece about a woman who regrets her creation, and tries to prevent any further suffering. The story takes place in Nigeria, centered on three female characters who carry themselves as modern-day goddesses, with all the drama you'd expect from any mythos.

Okorafor has created such a powerful supernatural thriller, Rain deserves an entire novel devoted to her storyline. In fact, I think if each woman were given their own novel, this would make a great trilogy!

As always,
