500 _aReturn to daevabad in the spellbinding sequel to the city of brass. S. A. Chakraborty continues the sweeping adventure begun in the city of brass—"the best adult fantasy Ive read since the name of the wind" (#1 New York Times bestselling author sabaa tahir)—conjuring a world where djinn summon flames with the SNAP of a finger and waters run deep with old magic; where blood can be dangerous as any spell, and a clever con artist from Cairo will alter the fate of a kingdom. Nahris 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 daevabad—and quickly discovered she would need all her grifter instincts to survive there. Now, with daevabad entrenched in the dark aftermath of the battle that saw Dara slain at prince Alis hand, Nahri must forge a new path for herself, without the protection of the guardian who stole her heart or the counsel of the prince she considered a friend. But even as she embraces her heritage and the power it holds, she knows shes been trapped in a gilded cage, watched by a king who rules from the throne that once belonged to her family—and 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 marid—the unpredictable water spirits—have 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 daevabads towering brass walls for About the Author: S. A. Chakraborty. S. A.
