Description

Kinning continues the stunning alternate history where bark cloth airships soar through the sky, varied peoples build a new society together, and colonies claim their freedom from imperialist tyrants. The Great War is over. Everfair has found peace within its borders. But our heroes' stories are far from done. Tink and his sister Bee-Lung are traveling the world via air-canoe, spreading the spores of a mysterious empathy-generating fungus. Through these spores, they seek to build bonds between people and help spread revolutionary sentiments of socialism and equality-the very ideals that led to Everfair's founding. Meanwhile, Everfair's Princess Mwadi and Prince Ilunga return home from a sojourn in Egypt to vie for their country's rule following the abdication of their father King Mwenda. But their mother, Queen Josina, manipulates them both from behind the scenes, while also pitting Europe's influenza-weakened political powers against one another as these countries fight to regain control of their rebellious colonies. Will Everfair continue to serve as a symbol of hope, freedom, and equality to anti-colonial movements around the world, or will it fall to forces inside and out?

The Great War is over. Everfair has found peace within its borders. But our heroes' stories are far from done. Tink and his sister Bee-Lung are traveling the world via air-canoe, spreading the spores of a mysterious empathy-generating fungus. Through these spores, they seek to build bonds between people and help spread revolutionary sentiments of socialism and equality-the very ideals that led to Everfair's founding. Meanwhile, Everfair's Princess Mwadi and Prince Ilunga return home from a sojourn in Egypt to vie for their country's rule following the abdication of their father King Mwenda. But their mother, Queen Josina, manipulates them both from behind the scenes, while also pitting Europe's influenza-weakened political powers against one another as these countries fight to regain control of their rebellious colonies. Will Everfair continue to serve as a symbol of hope, freedom, and equality to anti-colonial movements around the world, or will it fall to forces inside and out?

        November 20, 2023
        In this ambitious outing, Shawl broadens the scope of their alternate history of the early 20th century to show how the eponymous independent African country whose founding was the subject of their first book, 2016’s Everfair, interacts with the rest of the world. Now the two children of Everfair’s king, Princess Mwadi and Prince Ilunga, both claim the right to accession to the throne, while outside powers attempt to gain leverage in the kingdom’s politics. Meanwhile, Europe is in the midst of an influenza epidemic, for which a Chinese scientist has discovered a cure that involves spores that create empathic bonds between small groups of people. Siblings Tink and Bee-Lung set out to distribute the spores among residents of nations unwilling to accept them. There are so many characters and story lines to track that at times readers may become discouraged, but they’re in capable hands with Shawl, who has clearly done the research to create this expansive and well-crafted world. Those who stick with it will be happy they did.
