Short African fantasy Stories of being and becoming, of struggle and overcoming. First performed orally and then written as transcriptions. Some of the African fantasy short stories following are written as parables of identity; a few are scribed as adventures of colonialism; others as legends of being, becoming and overcoming; that can be enjoyed both in the reading and in the telling... All the stories are edited transcriptions of the original oral stories in the Wanafunzi African Warrior philosophical style of KaZimba Ngoma told on stage by the African performance Storyteller, known as Sola Story, who is also the author of this book and of each of the stories within. Welcome to worlds of people made wise and immensely powerful: through their connection with spirit; mind; body; the more than human and the earth. Feel from within the turning pages of the tales, the impact of the evil sorceress of The Three Ridges: dark deeds, infernal conspiracies and deadly but subtle cancers of a magical nature. Discover how those faced with betrayal, monstrous foes and great adversity, must find a way to invoke the ancient magic of the land. Reflect also on the expression of indigeneity and relationship with all beings expressed by those who know that 'it takes a village to raise a child and live the practice of Ubuntu ( I Am because We Are, We Are because I Am)." Is there violence, war and destruction? Yes... and... there is also Truth, Justice and Righteousness. Perhaps the reader may discover that strong minds and brave hearts can do much, as so can being in touch with the spirit of the presenting issue. The warriors of Africa are awake in this book, the 'Ancestors Have Found Their Mouthpiece' in the lines of truths expressed as tales. The soul of Ancient Africa awakens in its original form as a muse for all who feel a connection with the creativity of their indigenous selves and perhaps also as a medicine for those who wish it to be so...
