Amazing. One of the best fantasy books I’ve read. Ever.

So good. Splendid

Wonderful read. What a great read! I discovered this trilogy because the second book was on sale. After reading a lot of reviews I had to give it a shot. So glad to have picked it up! About to start the second book, and have the third book pre-ordered. This is well worth the read. There were unexpected twists and turns and the author takes you to a truly magical place. It has been far too long since I enjoyed a fiction book and so glad that this story was the one that fell into my hands. A great read for anybody who loves mythology and fantasy stories, or anybody who is looking for a unique adventure!

Shocked & In love with this book!. Not at all what I was expecting! Just finishing this book makes want to pick up the next one! And the feels at the end!? Ahhh! This book sucked me into an exciting and extravagant world, and I am not in any appalled by the outcome! A beautifully blended book, that you must read for yourself.

Great Read!. Kept me interested and surprised me more than once.

Unlikeable protagonist cartoony stakes. If you want to be frustrated with characters and befuddled by fictional racism and prejudice this book is for you.

Refreshing and different. If you’re into fantasy books, this series offers a refreshingly different take on magic and fantasy worldbuilding because it’s one of the few that aren’t Euro-centric. I really enjoyed reading about Middle Eastern/central Asian fantasy creatures and cultures. I thought the story was also pretty interesting and I like the main character Nahri a lot. I think I would have given it 5 stars if it had stronger romantic subplot(s). I think there was good potential but the romance elements failed to sizzle for me.

Refreshing Read. Highly Recommend!. Having just finished reading this book, I can confidently give it my highest recommendation. Not only does this story have tons of action and magic and bits of love sprinkled through, but the story line is unpredictable and keeps you on your toes. This is truly a unique and captivating story and I very much look forward to reading the second book when it eventually comes out. Don't hesitate any longer and pick up this book!

Transfixed!. This is a story that was difficult to put down. I read every word, imagining the world Nahri and Ali lives in, utterly transported! If this is a world of genies, sans the magic lamps(djinn), it is well worth visiting.

Best fantasy series since Harry Potter. The Daevabad series is an incredibly fun read from the first page to the last. Through the eyes of Nahri— a thief and con artist from Cairo—you discover a gorgeous, politically fraught, tribalistic world full of magic and djinn. Chakraborty expertly weaves in the varying flavors Islam from the Sahara to the Subcontinent into the story, making her fictional world feel as rich and real as the actual Islamic empires of the Medieval ages. Read it for the novel plot and the morally conflicted characters, get invested in the historical details along the way. You won’t regret picking this series up!

Brilliant. A great start to this series

Amazing. One of the best books I've ever read. Absolutely amazing.
