![]() I wrote the above in second person because right from the get go, giving a number of chapters in the second person, Broaddus immerses us into the world of Muungano in a strong and unrelenting way. Through the characters in this society, from the young scion who has reached a milestone in her life and is ready to take her place as a full member of society, to a group of soldiers on a planet on the other side of a interstellar gate, you will come to learn, and perhaps love this diverse and well imagined Afrofuturistic society, especially as it deals with the challenge of a new conflict with the society it defeated in order to come into being in the first place.You are reading a review of Maurice Broaddus’ Sweep of Stars. A future interplanetary society whose bounds and customs, rules and structure, are unfamiliar to you, but you will come to learn them. You are, for the purposes of this review, immersing yourself in the culture of Muungano. ![]()
