Djinn city6/6/2023 ![]() ![]() There, he learns hard truths and harnesses his own magic, thanks to an ancient and powerful fellow prisoner. Presumed dead by most, he is in fact relegated to a pit. With the knowledge of some in his human family, Indelbed is whisked away to a place where he’s less of a threat to the djinn. The source of such possible disasters? A child, Indelbed, whose mother was a djinni, whose drunken father is … something else, and whose heritage those in djinn power find too dangerous not to repress. Hossain’s Djinn City is a wholly enchanting contemporary fantasy novel that takes cherished stories of fantastical beings and transforms them into something crisp, engrossing, and newly relevant.Ī dilapidated home in bustling Bangladesh becomes the setting for events that threaten to undermine the known universe. Whatever your level of familiarity with beings mythological and godlike, rest assured: you’ve never journeyed with djinn like these before! Saad Z. Hossain’s story ripples with magic and just a dash of something twistedly angelic. ![]()
