T'Challa faces the gods of his parents. Vampires stalk Shuri and a Dora Milaje in voodoo-laced New Orleans. Erik Killmonger grapples with racism, Russian spies, and his own origins. Here are 18 brand-new tales of Wakanda, its people, and its legacy. The first mainstream superhero of African descent, the Black Panther has attracted fans of all races and colors who see in the king of Wakanda reflections of themselves. Storytellers from across the African diaspora - some already literary legends, others rising stars - have created for this collection original works inspired by the world of the Panther.

With guest stars including Storm, Monica Rambeau, Namor, and Jericho Drumm, these are stories of yesterday and today, of science and magic, of faith and love. These are the tales of a king and his country. These are the legends whispered in the jungle, myths of the unconquered men and women and the land they love. These are the Tales of Wakanda.

This collection features stories by Linda D. Addison, Maurice Broaddus, Christopher Chambers, Milton J. Davis, Tananarive Due, Nikki Giovanni, Harlan James, Danian Jerry, Kyoko M., L.L. McKinney, Temi Oh, Suyi Davies Okungbowa, Glenn Parris, Alex Simmons, Sheree Renée Thomas, Cadwell Turnbull, and Troy L. Wiggins.

T'WIL

A collection of stories worthy of the legacy that is The Black Panther and Wakanda

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 23, 2021

Verified Purchase

The authors took bold approaches and went beyond both the comics and the movies to provide windows into the characters and land that die hard fans and casual readers will enjoy. The chapters are long enough to engage you yet short enough to create a hunger for the story to continue. The book is hardcover which was a great publishing choice as it feels like a "good" book in your hands and allows you to read it in one setting or chop it up and re-read. I really appreciated the surprising conflict of emotions of N'Jadaka (Erik Killmonger) and Shuri. The weight of wearing the crown that T'Challa bears and the way that "outsiders" see Wakanda and its history and future. Mr. Chadwick Boseman would be proud that this book is dedicated to his honor and legacy. SALUTE Well done authors! WAKANDA FOREVER

Liked it.. but wasn't exactly what I expected. Wasn't as good as "Who is the Black Panther" was.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 26, 2021

The mini-stories were good but not as good as one contiguous storyline where the action centers around the Black Panther character.
I understand that Marvel kinda really doesn't know what to do with the Black Panther character now that Chadwick Boseman (who played the character so masterfully) is deceased. BUT... this character lives on in the comic book world!
So if more movies are to be made and more books written (and audiobooks done); those who are all too familiar and know well the story of T'Challa (and T'Chaka); don't want a story about Wakanda. As interesting as "the place" is... it's not "the superhero" we've all come to know, respect, and love! Wakanda is still a backdrop (it's where the characters are from and has shaped who they are and how they think). Nevertheless.. what fans of the Black Panther comics want are stories where he is not treated as a filler but is the main character. So... this conglomeration of stories although done very well is just not IT!

Well Read

Expands the World of Wakanda in Interesting Ways

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 14, 2021

Verified Purchase

The eighteen tales in here take readers from up close and personal in the throne room and palace of Wakanda, to its natural grounds and beauty to other lands beyond the secretive kingdom. Some stories focus on the usual suspects, T'Challa, Shuri, Okoye, and the Dora Milaje, but others offer new characters and some familiar ones in interesting new light, like Eric Killmonger or T'Challa's mother the Queen. Each story is completely different and the writing was really enjoyable. They need to make a series from these stories!

Fast paced Amazing Characters

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 13, 2021

Verified Purchase

I was expecting a bunch of stories continue on from the Black Panther movie. I was surprised and very entertained as I read about characters that were new and old to me. The stories were very fast paced while being easy to follow along even if you aren't familiar with the Black Panther story. Great book would recommend for anyone who wants to dive deep into the people lives of the people of Wakanda.

Great stories about Wakanda and the Black Panther,

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 12, 2021

Verified Purchase

I like the continuing stories of the kingdom of Wakanda and the superhero Black Panther. I read the comic books in my earlier years and of course, immensely enjoyed the movie. It is good to know that these stories will live on and notable black authors have joined in on keeping Black Panther alive.

Excellent read, been a fan even before people knew black panther exist.

It never disappoints, kept me occupied, now I don't know what to do with my life, the wife is now reading. And most expecially am more happy to support the writers and happy to see how it was written from their angle and impressed with it, looking forward to their next book.

Love the movie? You're going to adore these short stories!

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on March 12, 2021

Verified Purchase

Right from the introduction this series of stories I was hooked. Black Panther is one of the most intriguing Marvel characters there is and the tales the authors weave use him/his world/and his family/subjects to maximum effect.
Thought I'd get good, pulpy, Marvel fun and that is present for sure; really it's the humanity that is on display here. I can't properly explain it, all I can say is this book is amazing! Give it a go. Each story can be finished in an hour or less, so it's a fun read start to finish.
