Nnedi Okorafor è un'autrice afroamericana altamente plaudita nei generi di fantascienza e fantasy. Ha vinto numerosi premi per il suo lavoro, tra cui il World Fantasy Award for Best Novel per "Chi teme la morte" e un Amazon.com Best Book of the Year per "Akata Strega". Nata negli Stati Uniti da due genitori immigrati nigeriani, il lavoro di Okorafor è profondamente radicato nel suo patrimonio africano. Ha coniato i termini "africanfuturism" e "africanjujuism" per descrivere la miscela unica di cultura africana e realismo magico presente nella sua opera.
Oltre ai suoi romanzi originali, Okorafor ha anche contribuito a franchise stabiliti come Star Wars. Il suo lavoro si estende in vari formati, tra cui graphic novel, novelle e fiction per giovani adulti. Alcune delle sue opere notevoli includono "Laguna", "Kabu Kabu", "Zahrah il raccoglitore di vento" e "L'oratore delle ombre". Il suo romanzo per adulti "Il libro di Phoenix", un prequel di "Chi teme la morte", è stato rilasciato nel 2015 con recensioni entusiastiche.
Okorafor è un'autrice bestseller del New York Times e ha fatto parte della rosa dei finalisti per il British Science Fiction Association Award for Best Novel. Possiede un dottorato di ricerca in letteratura/scrittura creativa e lavora come professoressa associata all'Università di Buffalo, New York. Attualmente risiede a Phoenix, in Arizona, con sua figlia Anyaugo.
