“In this vibrant collection of speculative fiction…we visit various takes on the future of Africa, many of which are equally as bleak as the past. Each story is as carefully crafted as the last…With a knack for dialogue and an ambitious imagination, Okorafor effortlessly blends original characters with fantastical elements into the vivid scenery of Africa to create stories worth reading again and again.”

A 2020 Audie Award Finalist for Best Narration in Short Stories & Collections

Kabu kabu—unregistered illegal Nigerian taxis—generally get you where you need to go. Nnedi Okorafor's Kabu Kabu, however, takes the listener to exciting, fantastic, magical, occasionally dangerous, and always imaginative locations you didn't know you needed. This debut short story collection by an award-winning author includes notable previously published material, a new novella cowritten with New York Times bestselling author Alan Dean Foster, six additional original stories, and a brief foreword by Whoopi Goldberg.
