After falling out with her brothers, Samaki the goddess of water flees to Earth where she must mask her trace by splitting into a quadruplet of magi.

'A quadruplet is perfect, but all things are never equal. Dissonance arises when the magus Umozi breaks the quadruplet.

'Only the newness of a child magus can restore balance and save a broken paradise—with the help of a goddess mother.'

'When Zo's campervan leaves her stranded in an unfamiliar part of Sydney, she impulsively decides to stay at a bed and breakfast while repairs are being made.

'As the days stretch into weeks, Zo begins to feel stuck. There are signs the house is not quite as it seems. The place shifts between decay and normality and at times she senses ghostly presences and echoes of other lives.

'Something, or someone, is keeping her there. Zo knows that she must find a way to leave before she too becomes only an echo.'

'Hadithi [n. fable, story] is a new hybrid birthed from the collaboration of two writers with heritage in the African diaspora.

'It features seven short stories - three original - of ancestry, soul, continuity, discontinuity as well as steampunk, cyberfunk and a dieselfunk superhero story set in the ‘20s, together with a scholarly dialogue on the global state of black speculative fiction. Hadithi offers the kind of afrofuturistic diversity you might expect from a duality of curious writers unafraid to cross the borders of normalcy.'
