About this ebook
The first in the highly acclaimed trilogy packed with shooting contests, train robberies, festivals under the stars, powerful Djinni magic and an electrifying love story. WINNER of the 2016 Goodreads Choice Award for Best Debut Author.
"Tell me that and we'll go. Right now. Save ourselves and leave this place to burn. Tell me that's how you want your story to go and we'll write it straight across the sand."
Dustwalk is Amani's home. The desert sand is in her bones. But she wants to escape. More than a want. A need.
Then a foreigner with no name turns up to save her life, and with him the chance to run. But to where? The desert plains are full of danger. Sand and blood are swirling, and the Sultan's enemies are on the rise.
Praise for the series:
'Sheer escapism.' Guardian
'Winning.' New York Times
'Thrilling.' Booklist
'Hugely entertaining . . . breathless romance and show-stopping action sequences.' Bookseller

I bought this book for the gorgeous cover alone and I was not disappointed. I loved this world, these characters, and this story. I thought the first half of the book was the strongest, but the rest was enough to keep me reading late into the night. Book hangovers for the win!

Very interesting story building, loved the characters and the mystery slowly uncovered about Jin. Amazing
