Autorenporträt
Tochi Onyebuchi
Rezensionen
"A brilliant novel about sisters, war, and freedom."--Booklist, starred review

Onyebuchi has created a fascinating futuristic Nigeria and a plot filled with left hooks and upper cuts, even as he nobly illuminates one of the most pervasive conditions of the human experience. --The New York Times Book Review

"Set amid the horrors of war in a world ravaged by climate change and nuclear disaster, this heart-wrenching and complex page-turner, drawn from the 1960s Nigerian civil war, will leave readers stunned and awaiting the second installment."--Publishers Weekly, starred review

"The intense plot is narrated in alternating third-person perspectives, and the author explores themes surrounding colonization, family, and the injustices of war. The story culminates in an unexpected, heart-wrenching end. An exhilarating series opener."--Kirkus Reviews

"[A] compulsively readable story with high action and high drama in equal measure. Perfect for fans of Paolo Bacigalupi s novels and the Pacific Rim films."--SLJ

War Girls is a brutal and spectacular feat of imagination. --Dhonielle Clayton, New York Times bestselling author of The Belles series.
