Publisher's Summary
Niger, West Africa, 2077
I am the Desert Magician; I bring water where there is none.
This book begins with Dikeogu Obidimkpa slowly losing his mind. Yes, that boy who can bring rain just by thinking about it is having some . . . issues. Years ago, Dikeogu went on an epic journey to save Earth with the shadow speaker girl, Ejii Ubaid, who became his best friend. When it was all over, they went their separate ways, but now he's learned their quest never really ended at all.
So Dikeogu, more powerful than ever, reunites with Ejii. He records this story as an audiofile, hoping it will help him keep his sanity or at least give him something to leave behind. Smart kid, but it won't work—or will it?
I can tell you this: it won't be like before. Our rainmaker and shadow speaker have changed. And after this, nothing will ever be the same again.
As they say, "Onye amaro ebe nmili si bido mabaya ama ama onye nyelu ya akwa oji welu ficha aru."
Or, "If you do not remember where the rain started to beat you, you will not remember who gave you the towel with which to dry your body."
What the critics say
"An emotional near-future novel that will keep readers turning pages even as their mountain of questions grows larger."—Kirkus Reviews
