Binti is the first Himba to be offered a place at Oomza Uni, the best institution of higher learning in the galaxy. Accepting this offer will mean leaving her home and family to travel among strangers who do not share her customs. However, Binti does not know that knowledge will come at a high price, as a bloodthirsty alien race, the jellyfish, threaten her journey. To survive, she will need the help of her people and the wisdom contained in the University.
Winner of a Hugo Award in 2016 and a Nebula Award in 2015, and nominated for the Locus Award, 'Binti' is an intense and condensed story that explores prejudices and how they crumble when facing the unknown. This journey will irrevocably transform whoever undertakes it.
