[Periodicbrilliance]

I forgot to tell you guys...This summer I stumbled on a new Science Fiction/Urban fantasy series (my favourite genre)—Ben Aaronovitch’s Rivers Of London series!

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9317452-rivers-of-london

And made a incredible discovery!!!

A well developed Somali female character in A SCIENCE FICTION SERIES!

“A DC, Sahra Guleed was first introduced working with the Murder Team on the raid on the Faceless Man's "Strip Club of Dr. Moreau." She is a young woman of Somali descent. She wears a headscarf and refers to herself as a "muslim ninja"[3]. Later, she assists with the investigation into the murder of James Gallagher as a family liaison.[4]”

She has a brother who is an accountant.[3]

Nin Cadaan on Good Reads even commented: “Shaping up as another interesting side story. Good to see Gulleed well developed as a character.”

Our fictional sister:

I don't read books unfortunately abayo macaan like malawax iyo malaab, but I like seeing Somalis in Pop Culture.

I’m just glad they didn’t misrepresent her and draw her as some Macy Gray lookalike or one of the extras they had in the Black Hawk Down film from some years back.

Ben Aaronovitch is a great writer. And I read a lot of Sci Fi, so I can spot talent given the fact I’ve read a lot of bad writing. I would love to publish something fictionwise but I’m a lazy recreational writer.

Anyone here have a goodreads account? None of my friends are big readers and I like to scope reads off others! I just became active on goodreads again! Will follow back?

Attention seeking xarlimos have even made it to fictional books

Be forwarned she doesn’t show up until the second or third book? I can’t rmbr.
Check into getting the audiobook versions of some! The narrator of this series Kobna Holdbrook-Smith has a divine voice!
