520    "Dominion is the first anthology of speculative fiction 
       and poetry by Africans and the African Diaspora. An old 
       god rises up each fall to test his subjects. Once an old 
       woman's pet, a robot sent to mine an asteroid faces an 
       existential crisis. A magician and his son time-travel to 
       Ngoni country and try to change the course of history. A 
       dead child returns to haunt his grieving mother with 
       terrifying consequences. Candace, an ambitious middle 
       manager, is handed a project that will force her to 
       confront the ethical ramifications of her company's latest
       project--the monetization of human memory. Osupa, a 
       newborn village in pre-colonial Yorubaland populated by 
       refugees of war, is recovering after a great storm when a 
       young man and woman are struck by lightning, causing three
       priests to divine the coming intrusion of a titanic object
       from beyond the sky. A magician teams up with a 
       disgruntled civil servant to find his missing wand. A 
       taboo error in a black market trade brings a man face-to-
       face with his deceased father--literally. The death of a 
       King sets off a chain of events that ensnare a trickster, 
       an insane killing machine, and a princess, threatening to 
       upend their post-apocalyptic world. Africa is caught in 
       the tug-of-war between two warring Chinas, and for 
       Ibrahima torn between the lashings of his soul and the 
       pain of the world around him, what will emerge? When the 
       Goddess of Vengeance locates the souls of her stolen 
       believers, she comes to a midwestern town with a terrible 
       past, seeking the darkest reparations. In a post-
       apocalyptic world devastated by nuclear war, survivors 
       gather in Ife-Iyoku, the spiritual capital of the ancient 
       Oyo Empire, where they are altered in fantastic ways by 
       its magic and power."--Back cover
