Umuokika is a prosperous African community led by Chief Ebube, the son of a great warrioruntil a mysterious illness descends upon the people. Its first victim is Ebubes youngest wife, who becomes sick with a high fever and strange sores. At first, Ebube suspects malaria, but it is not long before others in Umuokika and beyond begin to fall ill. From the onset of the health crisis, a battle begins between faith and science, the old and the new, and the indigenous and the foreign. In a community torn apart by a simmering debate over which way to resolve the emergency, Chief Ebube finds himself in a precarious situation since his wife is the carrier of the disease. Fueled by a burning desire to uphold religious traditions and save lives, Ebube eventually caves into the demands of the people and follows the prescription of a diviner over medical advice. But what he does not know is that his decision comes with tragic consequences. Swimming with Lizards is the tale of an African communitys battle with a mystery illness as its leader and his people attempt to contain the ravages of the disease before it is too late for all of them. A scorching narrative loaded with complex, thought-provoking aspects Don Okolo, author/ filmmaker

A powerful Nigeria-set horror tale of possession, malevolent ghosts, family tensions, secrets and murder from the recipient of the Bram Stoker Award for Lifetime Achievement and 'Queen of African Horror'. For readers of Octavia Butler, Ben Okri and Koji Suzuki. Bata, an 11-year-old girl tormented by nightmares, wakes up one night to find herself standing sentinel before her cousin's door. Her skin, hair, and eyes have turned a dazzling white colour, which even the medicine-man can't heal. Her cousin is to get married the next morning, but only if she can escape the murderous attack of a ghost-bride, who used to be engaged to her groom. Through the night, Bata battles the vengeful ghost and finally vanquishes it before collapsing. On awakening, she has no recollection of the events. And when the medicine-man tries to exorcise the entities clinging to her body as a result of her supernatural possession, Bata dies on the exorcism mat. There begins her journey. She is taken into Ibaja-La, the realm of dead brides, by Mmuọ-Ka-Mmuọ, the ghost-collector of the spirit realm. There she meets the ghosts of brides from every culture who died tragically before their weddings; both the kind and the malevolent. Bata is given secret powers to fight the evil ghost-brides before being sent back to the human realm, where she must learn to harness her new abilities as she strives to protect those whom she loves. By turns touching and terrifying, this is vivid supernatural horror story of family drama, long-held secrets, possession, death - and what lies beyond.

Haggling for scraps in the market, Treasure meets a spirit who promises to bring her father back - but she has to complete a monstrous task for him first. Ozoemena has an itch in the middle of her back that can't be scratched. An itch that tells of her great and terrible destiny, passed down through generations, to defend her people by becoming a leopard. Her father impressed upon her what an honour this was before he vanished, but it's one she couldn't want less. But as the two girls reckon with their burgeoning wildness and the legacy of their fathers' decisions, Ozoemena's fellow students at her new boarding school start to vanish. Treasure and Ozoemena will face frightening choices as they are drawn into battle with sinister forces - and it's a fight they can't both survive.

If children are our future, it's important that they remember the past, because if they don't, no one will. Who, if not parents, can impart family histories and heritage upon children? Nkem DenChukwu's inspirational collection, the issues of bloodline and heritage are tackled head-on, along with the importance of one's culture. In Part I, DenChukwu delves into the tribal heritage of the Igbos of Eastern Nigeria. She explains it vividly, how being born in any one country does not determine who you really are. Instead, your bloodline represents your true heritage. In understanding the difference, DenChukwu believes you can better understand yourself. In Part II, she transitions into lucid life tales to show the beauty in a language, how one's culture and the lack thereof, can affect one's thought processes and behavior. It is possible to lose an accent or assimilate into a new culture. It is also possible to forget your heritage, and in this forgetfulness, people lose much.

The goal of this book is to initiate theoretical discussions on the popular subject of African literary language, and the thrust of the contribution, apart from theory-building, is the introduction of the Post-indiginist concept next to the well known essentialist and hybrid concepts. The study outlines a set of criteria for each aesthetic concept, so that literary analysis based on the criteria will verify whether or not they are adequate for understanding, explaining and describing African writers' language usage. It is expected that a language aesthetic theory in the African context may help in the study of individual writers' styles and equally address a neglect of descriptive studies in African literary scholarship.
