Summary of War Girls

In a scorched 2172 Nigeria where isotope storms paint the sky toxic green, battle-scarred pilot Onyii rockets a steel mech over ruined Lagos while her tech-genius sister Ify hacks satellite drums from a hidden bunker, both chasing the fractured promise of reunion. Climate chaos and nuclear fallout have turned much of Earth into a no-man’s desert, and only spaceborne elites sip clean water, leaving ground dwellers to bleed for lithium fields—a blistering fight for Environmental Justice that hums beneath every servo and shrapnel burst. As a years-long civil war splinters tribes and megacities, Onyii’s bionic arm hums like defiant thunder and Ify’s neural implants flash with code that could jam an entire battalion, proving Gender Equality is forge-welded into their armor. Mech brigades slam across irradiated savanna, refugees huddle in drifting villages, and Political Justice hangs on whether two determined sisters can outfly generals, rogue drones, and the ghosts of Nigeria’s past to stitch hope back into the burnt horizon. One crackling question hovers over the radioactive dust: will love override war’s firmware?
