À propos de cet audio

Inspired by stories from One Thousand and One Nights, this book weaves together the gripping tale of a legendary smuggler, a cowardly prince, and a dangerous quest across the desert to find a legendary, magical lamp.

Neither here nor there, but long ago . . .

Loulie al-Nazari is the Midnight Merchant: a criminal who, with the help of her jinn bodyguard, hunts and sells illegal magic. When she saves the life of a cowardly prince, she draws the attention of his powerful father, the sultan, who blackmails her into finding an ancient lamp that has the power to revive the barren land—at the cost of sacrificing all jinn.

With no choice but to obey or be executed, Loulie journeys with the sultan's oldest son to find the artifact. Aided by her bodyguard, who has secrets of his own, they must survive ghoul attacks, outwit a vengeful jinn queen, and confront a malicious killer from Loulie's past. And, in a world where story is reality and illusion is truth, Loulie will discover that everything—her enemy, her magic, even her own past—is not what it seems, and she must decide who she will become in this new reality.

A thrilling adventure perfect for anyone who enjoys One Thousand And One Nights, THE STARDUST THIEF is packed with excitement, magic, drama, banter, twists, and legends. I was enthralled throughout, taken to a hypnotic world, and can’t wait to return!

Loulie, Aisha, and Mazen are great characters with depth and goals. They all have unique voices (bold, vengeful, and sweet) and mannerisms that make them strong and interesting. Each one has their world rocked by a revelation that alters their perception of what goals they had. No one comes out unscathed, which keeps the stakes raised.

The plot is filled with mystery and magic, the setting and lore immersive. Readers who are familiar with Middle Eastern lore and One Thousand And One Nights will recognize certain legends and creatures, which a mythology lover like me always appreciates.

THE STARDUST THEIF ends on a cliffhanger that has me begging for more, and I can’t wait to continue this hidden gem!
