Nahriโs life changed forever the moment she accidentally summoned Dara, a formidable, mysterious djinn, during one of her schemes.

Whisked from her home in Cairo, she was thrust into the dazzling royal court of Daevabadโand quickly discovered she would need all her grifter instincts to survive there. Now, with Daevabad entrenched in the dark aftermath of a devastating battle, Nahri must forge a new path for herself. But even as she embraces her heritage and the power it holds, she knows sheโs been trapped in a gilded cage, watched by a king who rules from the throne that once belonged to her familyโand one misstep will doom her tribe.. Meanwhile, Ali has been exiled for daring to defy his father. Hunted by assassins, adrift on the unforgiving copper sands of his ancestral land, he is forced to rely on the frightening abilities the maridโthe unpredictable water spiritsโhave gifted him. But in doing so, he threatens to unearth a terrible secret his family has long kept buried. And as a new century approaches and the djinn gather within Daevabad's towering brass walls for celebrations, a threat brews unseen in the desolate north. Itโs a force that would bring a storm of fire straight to the cityโs gates . . . and one that seeks the aid of a warrior trapped between worlds, torn between a violent duty he can never escape and a peace he fears he will never deserve.
