AN INSTANT #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER Instant New York Times
bestseller Instant #1 Sunday Times bestseller Instant Indie
bestseller Instant USA Today bestseller Clashing empires, forbidden
romance, and a long-forgotten queen destined to save her people-New
York Times bestselling author Tahereh Mafi's first novel in this
epic, romantic fantasy series inspired by Persian mythology. To all
the world, Alizeh is a disposable servant, not the long-lost heir
to an ancient Jinn kingdom forced to hide in plain sight. The crown
prince, Kamran, has heard the prophecies foretelling the death of
his king. But he could never have imagined that the servant girl
with the strange eyes, the girl he can't put out of his mind, would
one day soon uproot his kingdom - and the world. Perfect for fans
of Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J Maas, and Chloe Gong, this is the
explosive first book in a new fantasy trilogy from the New York
Times bestselling and National Book Award-nominated author, Tahereh
Mafi. "An original fantasy saga threaded through with Persian myths
written by a queen of the genre. A* grade world-building" - The
Times Best YA Books for Summer 2022 'Forbidden love and Persian
mythology are at the center of this new trilogy series, and it
might be Mafi's best work yet.' - Cosmopolitan, Best YA Books of
2022 'Master of YA fantasy' Pop Sugar 'Gut-wrenchingly beautiful.'
- Kirkus Reviews "In a tale as exquisitely crafted as one of
Alizeh's own garments, Mafi weaves a spell of destiny and danger,
forbidden love and courtly intrigue, magic and
revolution."-Cassandra Clare, #1 New York Times bestselling author
of The Last Hours 'This story is so magical and transportive that I
fully expected the book would know the moment I'd finished - within
hours, no less - and promptly unravel into a pile of jewels and
silks in my hands. Mafi's diamond-bright lyrical voice weaves a
tale that is gilded in magic, laced with subterfuge, adorned with
the brocade of a tortuous romance, and richly embroidered with
Persian mythology. I cannot wait for more.' - Roshani Chokshi, New
York Times bestselling author of The Gilded Wolves
