A delightful romp into a world that borrows on a culture I do not know enough about! I had no idea the extent of djinn lore. It was also nice to read a book where a mother of a young child is one of the heroes and how the community just naturally supports her and doesn't treat toddlers like a burden. More of this in fiction please! There are weak moments but it was worth the read.

Probably the weirdest book I've ever read. I can't wait to read more of his works!

3.5. Interesting read, but I didn't find it quite as captivating as the previous novella in this universe. I would still absolutely come back for another story, though.
