After saving her father and the other jinn kings, Farrah (13yo) now knows the truth of her half-jinn heritage. Her mother, free from holding that secret, decides they can finally have an adventure and move away from Philadelphia. While Farrah would do anything for her mother, Farrah can’t help but want to see more of the jinn realm—an opportunity at her fingertips in the form of an official summons from the kings.
Being described as half-human and half-jinn, Farrah longs to find a place where she fits, where she belongs—an impossible task when not even Farrah can see herself as whole. With pressure on all sides to be good and make the right choices, Farrah’s journey through magical realms is one all readers can relate too. Her story is not over yet, leaving off on a cliffhanger with the fate of both worlds in the balance. Farrah is Muslim Afghan American.
