Summary: Africa and the future !
Review: Muezzinland had me gripped from the first chapter !
the future world of Africa was exotic and strange with enough technological detail to convince but not so much as to overwhelm. This image of the future has its roots in cyberspace but with a neat twist - global comunication
has broken down to the point where even knowledge of local geography is limited. Apart from the main characters (all female) there are very interesting A.I., hybrid and mystic
inclusions, in fact the way the mystic element to the story is handled is its main strength giving a neat new angle on the subject of architypes, deities etc. - the way Stephen Palmer
has woven these elements in to an exciting storyline is great
leaving me on the look out for more of his work.
