FORBIDDEN ROMANCE STEAMS UP THE PAGES of this Persian mythology-inspired fantasy series opener, in a luxurious, saffron-scented world, where devils whisper unwelcome prophecies and princes fall in love with ice-eyed Jinn. Hopeless romantics will relish the euphoric agony of anticipation as they watch these fated lovers sort through their feelings. But while Alizeh and Kamran's relationship develops, Mafi treats readers to sumptuous world-building,. Mafi's story expands deliberately, each small revelation rising from the one before, delivering deeply satisfying epiphanies at the end of each chapter. The wait for a return ticket to this exquisite kingdom is made bearable only by flipping to the front and repeating your first visit." -NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW 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 he can't put out of his mind would one day uproot his kingdom- and the world. This Woven Kingdom is a story of clashing empires, forbidden romance, and a long-forgotten queen--who must claw her way through darkness to reclaim her throne, rebuild her kingdom, and save her people from the half-lives they've been forced to live.
