Summary

Return to Daevabad in the spellbinding sequel to The City of Brass.

In Daevabad, where djinn can summon flames with a snap of their fingers, where rivers run deep with ancient magic, and blood can be as dangerous as any spell, a clever con artist from Cairo will alter the fate of a kingdom.

Nahri’s life changed forever when she accidentally summoned Dara, a formidable, mysterious djinn, during one of her schemes. Thrust into the dazzling royal court of Daevabad, she needed all of her grifter instincts to survive. Now, as Nahri embraces her heritage and her power, she must forge a new path.

Exiled for daring to defy his father, Ali is adrift on the unforgiving sands of his ancestral land, hunted by assassins and forced to rely on frightening new abilities that threaten to reveal a terrible family secret.

And as a new century approaches and the djinn gather within Daevabad's brass walls to celebrate, a power in the desolate north will bring a storm of fire straight to the city’s gates....

This took me a while to finish. I enjoyed book 2 a little more than I did book 1. There were sections that left me thoroughly frustrated ie Nahri and Ali’s thoughtlessness and childish antics. Mostly, I am left quite intrigued on what will happen next. Jamshid is a character yet to bloom and I am keen to see what kind of role he will be playing. 3.8 stars overall. Great narration!

A lengthy listen but a pretty good one!

A very interesting next step in the story. Great twists and character growth. Loved hearing the justifications from all sides. I will definitely be listening to the next book.

Absolutely loved this sequel! I somehow managed to fall in love with the beautifully complex and tragic characters even more. Can’t wait to listen to the third book!

The voice actor for the audiobook is great as well, highly recommend listening to this book.
