Nahri is learning the traditions and healing arts of the djinn while the whole city prepares for the holiday of the new century. Djinn will come from all over the world to celebrate in the city and for a chance to glimpse a member of the Nahid family.
Ali has been banished from the city and is trying a quiet life in the desert - enjoying being a (somewhat) regular djinn instead of the prince.
But on the horizon is a plot to attack the city during the holiday, to bring Daevabad to its knees and usurp King Ghassan whose family has ruled for millennium.
Chakraborty is a wonderful storyteller. Her books have all of the hallmarks of a brilliant fantasy series with the added bonus of magical creatures of desert folklore. Read this series!
