Mage of Fools
Mage of Fools | Eugen Bacon
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
In the dystopian world of Mafinga, Jasmin must contend with a dictator's sorcerer to cleanse the socialist state of its deadly pollution. Mafinga's malevolent king dislikes books and, together with his sorcerer Atari, has collapsed the environment to almost uninhabitable. The sun has killed all the able men, including Jasmin's husband Godi. But Jasmin has Godi's secret story machine that tells of a better world, far different from the wastelands of Mafinga. Jasmin's crime for possessing the machine and its forbidden literature filled with subversive text is punishable by death. Fate grants a cruel reprieve in the service of a childless queen who claims Jasmin's children as her own. Jasmin is powerless--until she discovers secrets behind the king and his sorcerer.

(2022) Here's a good one, set in an African kingdom with a toxic government, where stories are outlawed and men are disappearing, and near the seat of power lurks a mad scientist who may not exactly be human. And oh reader the lovely vivid expressive prose. Must read more Eugen Bacon.
