Summary:
Discover this spellbinding debut from S.A. Chakraborty.
‘An extravagant feast of a book – spicy and bloody, dizzyingly magical, but still, somehow, absolutely believable’ Laini Taylor, Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author
Among the bustling markets of eighteenth century Cairo, the city’s outcasts eke out a living swindling rich Ottoman nobles and foreign invaders as well.
But alongside this new world the old stories linger. Tales of djinn and spirits. Of towns concealed among the swirling sands of the desert, filled with enchantment, desire and riches. Where magic pours down every road, dangling in the surroundings like dust.
Many want their lives could be filled up with such wonder, but not Nahri. She knows the deals she uses to get by are just methods and sleights of hand: there is nothing marvelous about them. She only wishes to 1 day keep Cairo, but as the saying goes…
Be careful everything you wish for.
