Nnedi Okorafor's story of Chioma- a young Nigerian-American woman whose destiny is revealed during a furious rainstorm-now in paperback- with bonus content including Q&As with the creative team and never-before-seen art and designs! After the Rain is an adaptation of Nnedi Okorafor's short story- 'On the Road.' The adaptation- written by John Jennings and illustrated by David Brame- begins in Nigeria during a powerful and unexpected storm. While visiting her grandmother- a young Nigerian-American woman named Chioma answers a knock at the door and is horrified by what she sees-a young boy with a severe head wound is standing on the doorstep. When he touches Chioma- his hand burns like fire and just as suddenly as he arrived- he disappears. Her grandmother comes down to see what is wrong and chastises Chioma for opening the door for a stranger. Outside there are only footprints in the mud which vanish in the same manner as their owner. This event sets off a chain of mysterious occurrences that become more and more terrifying. Chioma knows that something is wrong- and that the boy has 'marked' her in some way. . . . Haunted and hunted- Chioma must embrace her heritage in order to survive.
