Negus II: Phenomena

Negus Series, Book 2

By: Bien-Aime Wenda

Narrated by: Daryl Mayfield

The sequel to Negus volume one, Negus II continues with another compilation of African-American science fiction. With memories of the planet Earth not too far behind, Huey's journey on the new planet of Negus resumes with Rosa and Kwame. Rosa discovers another phenomenon related to the decalcification of pineal glands. Previously introduced in book one and the stand-alone book, The Melanins continue as visitors from another planet trek to the United States. The collection also includes brand new stories such as "The Guardians", told from the perspective of spirit guides, and "Skin-Deep", a tale of a modern day bride in an alternate universe, who undergoes an eye-opening transformation. Whether you're obsessed with outer space, spirituality, conspiracy theories, magic, or science fiction, Negus II explores the "what-ifs", intended to leave listeners in deep thought.

Loved it!

She can’t miss! I wanted to jump into this book from the first book Negus but couldn’t get past the narrator change. I waited several months and decided to revisit it and boy am I kicking myself. This was a roller coaster of fantastic short stories. I’m so serious when I say every story leave you with a new perspective or something different learned. I really can’t choose a favorite short story from this series because all of them left me blown away. It so much to unpack that I listened to them twice back to back. This has easily become one of my favorites.

Just a brief overview. There’s a story about moving to a different planet because the people of earth were abandoned by the higher echelon of “leaders” there will be a few that you will know by name even though she doesn’t mention names. There’s a story how the devil became a snake. A lesson about listening to your intuition and the consequences when we don’t and the rewards when we do. There’s a story about a phenomenon of LITERALLY changing when you’re a nasty person personality wise and how we ask for things and it’s given but we still fail to realize it. There’s a story that will give you a different perspective on animals… completely eye opening “Cielo”… Geesh. There’s a story about children being protected until a certain age and it’s wild. This book also touches on banded books and the dangers of Ebooks (buy those physical copies). Then there’s one of my favorites, the stories of the people of a small town in Mississippi where some of them would rather die than to be black. I loved loved loved this story!

Anyway you won’t be disappointed and happy reading. It’s a wonderful collection!

Negus II by Wenda Bien Amie is another classic for the world of Science Fiction literature. It explores the spiritual, emotional and physical realms of existence from the perspective of melanated people. Negus II exposes and addresses the issues currently effecting Social Justice in the United States and how race plays a major role in American Society. Negus II is a well written scientific novel with a dose of wokeness that can’t be denied. I’m halfway through the book and I can’t help but brainstorm when dissecting this magnificent work of art. Definitely a 5 star review for Negus II

Awesome at its beat

LOVED IT! I loved every story. I would love to get whole books of these stories. But again, I loved it it.
