Only Amani, Hala, Jin, the twins and a few others are left to decide a course of action in order to free Ahmed.Īmani will lead our small group but who is she compared with the Sultan? Even compared with Ahmed and Shazad who have been raised and groomed to become leaders? This book begins right after the rebellion has been decimated by the Sultan.Īhmed, Shazad, Delila and many others have been captured. : a long book, movie, etc., that usually tells a story about exciting events or adventures
Homer’s ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey”. : a long poem that tells the story of a hero’s adventures There is no better word for this trilogy as according the Merriam Webster dictionary: When I shut the book it was with a pang of regret as I knew that I was leaving the Djinni’s and Demdji’s world for the last time.Īlwyn Hamilton has written an epic. I had to make hard choice, know who would die, who would be sacrificed among friends and allies to save many. I tried to make deals with Djinni without being tricked. I balanced on a high rooftop spying on the Sultan. I leapt from a big blue bird to the sandy ground, climbed mountains, crossed deserts on a ship. I read it in two days (work just got in the way) flying into the book, going from one battle to the next, out of breath most of the time. The incoming YALC London with Alwyn Hamilton attending this even t was the proverbial kick in my behind to push me into action. The third one has been pre-ordered months before its release but it was patiently waiting on my shelf as I was drowning in ARCs and new releases. 
They were so smart and enthralling that I bought them in French for my kids who are now both addicted. I had been lucky to get the first two books via Netgalley.
Why did I wait months before reading this one? Stunning conclusion to a riveting fantasy trilogy!
