This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the Earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

Publisher's Summary
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.
Rosewater is a town on the edge. 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.
Kaaro is a government agent with a criminal past. 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.
Critic Reviews
"Inventive aliens and realistic-feeling invasion... keen observations of how easily people ignore and accept what should be terrifying... intriguing characters (many of them women) who have lives of their own beyond the pages...fascinating." (Strange Horizons)
"A fiercely weird, breathtaking biopunk tale of alien invasion, Rosewater is ambitious and smart and very, very cool." (Tasha Suri)
"Compellingly strange yet accessible...a character-driven, morally grey tale of hope and potential redemption." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

Editor's Pick
Mysterious alien biodome? Sign me up"From the moment I started listening, I knew there was something special about this near-future sci-fi novel. Okay, that’s a lie, the moment I heard it had won the Nommo Award—Africa’s first prize for speculative fiction—may have sealed the deal. The start of the series (yes!), Rosewater is set in the town of Rosewater in Nigeria, a community that spawned following the appearance of a mysterious alien biodome with immense powers, and is told through the experiences—past and present—of Kaaro, a "sensitive" with psychic-like abilities. At times, I got an almost Philip K. Dickian vibe from this one—somewhat weird and trippy, yet intelligent and complex—but drawing any kind of comparison just feels like a disservice to the author; Thompson’s voice is truly unique, and I can’t wait to see what else comes out of his vivid imagination. Plus, I’m thrilled we get to welcome a new, talented narrator to the scene with Bayo Gbadamosi’s debut performance in this novel."

Good but not quite for me
The prose is beautifully constructed and the characters are well drawn and full. The story is original and compelling, as is the setting. For some reason, though, I just couldn't quite get into this story as much as I felt like I should. "On paper" it's everything I love in a story, The performance is great as well - all around, an objectively (well, as objectively as one can be with one's judgement) good audiobook. I would definitely recommend it to others. For whatever reason, though, my mind kept wandering while I listened. I didn't connect to it.

Wow! Just wow!
This book is easily one of the most interesting and original listens of the year. African culture, spirituality and superstitions, succubus sex, aliens, politics, government conspiracies, ectoplasm, antifungal cream, what more could you want?
The year is 2066 and Rosewood is a Nigerian city that has sprung up around an alien biodome. Once a year for a few minutes the dome heals people. But this "healing" is not as benign as it would seem and more sinister things are going on. First book of a trilogy and I can't wait for the next book!

Compelling, Original, Breakthrough SF
With breathtaking honesty, Tade Thompson joins the glittering lineage of authors Philip K. Dick, James Tiptree Jr./Alice B. Sheldon, William Gibson and other pioneers who have opened new territories in science fiction with a brilliantly original schema and startling world view.
In "Rosewater," Thompson refreshes the meaning of tropes that have dwindled into derivative clichés, including aliens, first contact, telepathy, biological/mechanical hybrids, post-colonialism, and the future nature of work, family, and society. Of particular value is his exploration of how rare talents and powers are just as dangerous as they are beneficial without recognition and guidance, training and discipline.
I agree that the protagonist is at first extremely self-absorbed and unappealing. Yet when you consider the average adolescent male, then "gift" him with bizarre and terrifying mental powers unique in history, what is the likelihood he will grow into a polite, compassionate and courageous adult? It would take decades just to gain any sense of control over his own mind. I found it encouraging that Kaaro was able to conduct moral debates with himself on the nature of fidelity, feel sorrow for past actions (especially when "virtual" and "real" are so difficult to distinguish), and finally FINALLY take that poor injured street dog to the vet--although even this was part of an alibi, not a selfless act!
Thompson takes the ordinary "now"--dysfunctional families, collapsing economies, secret government agencies, environmental hazards, political corruption, eternal greed--and with abrupt, almost magical twists, builds a future world that changes our view of this world irrevocably.
I also have to commend narrator Bayo Gbadamosi. He is a phenomenal voice actor, ranging deftly from young to old, male to female, even human to alien and mechanical, with grace and sophistication.
I want more! UPDATE: The second book in the trilogy appears in March. It's now in my Wish List.

It feels like a dream.........
I admit that I have little patience for other people's dreams. Somehow, Tade Thompson makes this book feel like a dream that I am personally experiencing. Many times I have woken with an urge to return to sleep to continue a dream. To recapture a fading fantasy through slumber. I am rarely successful. Thankfully, Rosewater accomplishes the process. Although, this is the first in a series, this novel seems like a complete story. A dream completed. Honestly, I will definitely continue this series when the books are available. I will most likely pre-order. (That's the highest praise I can offer.)
Now about Bayo Gbadamosi --WOW. He is amazing. I think his performance was nearly perfect. I commend him for tackling words that are unfamiliar and actually improving their pronunciation. For example, Roanoke.( I have heard the story of Roanoke so I knew the reference.) Think about it, Roanoke is not a name that rolls off the tongue --unless you are like Mr. Gbadamosi. He has this lilting tone that drew me into the phantasm of Rosewater even more completely.
There are a few narrators who could read the dictionary and I would be captivated. David Chandler, Sullivan Jones and now Bayo Gbadamosi.
I absolutely recommend this audio book.

Confusing...and not very entertaining
I kept hoping that the book was off to a slow start, but it never got better. The back and forth from present to different times in the past plus random interludes made the sequence of events super confusing. If you miss a transition, nothing makes sense, especially because the jumps involve the same characters. The storyline doesn't draw you in and I didn't feel curious even though the author hinted at things throughout.

Character driven…right off the cliff
Don’t get me wrong, interesting story and great character development. But the whole thing is derailed by constant shifts in time until it becomes almost impossible to keep hold of the story thread. Plus, the author introduces too much at the end to set up the series, none of which sounds as interesting as what has agonizingly unfolded in this book. I won’t be following along, although the narrator was superb. There should be a rating for book structure, as I'd give this one 1 star.

Surprising science fiction novel
Rosewater is a an outstanding near future fantasy story with an intriguing premise. Tade Thompson consistently paints a vivid picture of what is going on through his colorful language and interesting phrasing.
While the premise is interesting, the story does not rely too heavily upon it. A lot of what happens in the story stands independent from the main hook. Many of the characters are developed very well, although some characters I had a hard time remembering.
I did not like the protagonist, but I suspect we aren't suppose to. He's flawed which is refreshing, but makes me a bit uncomfortable too.
The first and second act were outstanding, but the third act was a bit disjointed. There is a lot of shifting between time lines that gets a little confusing, although has some pay offs.
I enjoyed this novel as an audio book, and the performer Bayo Gbadamosi did an outstanding job. Only criticism is that he speaks a bit slow, but listening at 1.25x speed fixed that.
If you enjoy science fiction, fantasy, and even mystery then you will likely enjoy this novel.

Afro-futurism, but not good
A sci-fi book set in Africa? I was on board because that's pretty unusual and interesting, however this book was slow to start and never really got better. It was a bit confusing as the author kept jumping around in time. I really wanted to like it, especially after reading such glowing reviews, but who are those people? Where are the people that loved this book because i don't get it and would love to discuss. Maybe I missed something?

Afro-futurism / Afro-punk sci-fi at it's finest
Rosewater is an awesome alien, technological, afro-futurism journey across three or so timelines under one main character. it's original and extremely well voice acted. I look forward to book two: the insurrection.
