ÒRUN is a work of speculative fiction deeply rooted in Afrofuturism, weaving together two narratives seemingly distant in time and space yet connected by universal themes of identity, memory, and resistance. In a distant future, in the extraterrestrial colony of Plantation Bragi, we witness the life of Zett, a young "Vanir" soldier with a cybernetic uru arm, marked by stigma and the oppressive hierarchy of the "Aesir." His destiny intersects with that of Ogum, a combat android of unsettling sophistication and beauty, who begins to exhibit glitches of consciousness. Therefore, ÒRUN is a saga that spans from the poetry of the homeland to the coldness of interstellar space. It is a work for readers of Octavia E. Butler, Nnedi Okorafor, and N.K. Jemisin, who appreciate dense, politically conscious, and spiritually engaged speculative fiction, where technology and ancestry do not oppose each other, but collide and merge to create new ways of existing and resisting.
