The 2022 Nommo Awards (for African Speculative Fiction) was announced on Sep. 2nd. The winner in the novel category is The Library of the Dead by T.L. Huchu. I finished this a few days ago and am going to take the liberty of counting it here in case I don't get to another award winner. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

I read The Library of the Dead by T.L. Huchu and really enjoyed it. It was different than I thought it would be but it felt unique in the writing style and I loved that.
