Rosewater book7/4/2023 This is a crazy book with many ideas, several timelines, different planes of existence, and an interesting cast of characters. He has seen inside the biodome, and doesn’t care to again-but when something begins killing off others like himself, Kaaro must defy his masters to search for an answer, facing his dark history and coming to a realization about a horrifying future. Kaaro is a government agent with a criminal past. A community formed around the edges of a mysterious alien biodome, its residents comprise the hopeful, the hungry and the helpless-people eager for a glimpse inside the dome or a taste of its rumored healing powers. Tade Thompson’s Rosewater is the start of an award-winning, cutting edge trilogy set in Nigeria, by one of science fiction’s most engaging new voices. Opening line: I’m at the Integrity Bank job for forty minutes before the anxieties kick in. It was difficult to read and it’s definitely only the start of a longer story but, boy, did I love it! Some people loved it, some hated it, some said it was too difficult to understand – that’s exactly the right mix to get me super interested and want to form an opinion of my own. I’ve been hearing about this trilogy ever since the first book came out but reviews were all over the place.
