Майя Ибрагим – лучшие книги

Под жарким солнцем пустыни охотятся джинны и гули. А в затерянном среди песков городе воины заваривают чай. Руководит церемонией Имани, талантливая воительница в рядах Щитов. Её дар – родство с металлом. Её оружие – не знающий промаха кинжал. Её брат – предатель, который воровал мисру, священную пряность её народа. Тайная магия мисры пробуждает великие дары, а чай наделяет воинов силами. Но желание владеть пряностью ведет к одержимости, и брат Имани пал её жертвой. Если есть хотя бы малейший шанс, что он выжил, то именно Имани должна стать тем, кто найдет его и заставит понести наказание. В сопровождении других могущественных Щитов…

Get swept away by the sequel to the instant Sunday Times bestseller Spice Road! In this romantic, action-packed fantasy set in an Arabian-inspired land, Imani and Taha must save their home from an invasion after the magical enchantment that hid them from the world is defeated. Imani is a magic-wielding warrior sworn to protect her land from the monsters that roam the desert. But an even worse enemy now threatens the Sahir. As the powerful Harrowlanders march south with their greatest weapon—spice magic—Imani knows it’s only a matter of time before their invasion of her land begins . . . and it will be a losing battle for her people. But Imani also knows that one way to fight magic is with monsters. If she can restore Qayn’s stolen powers, together they can summon a supernatural army to defend the Sahir from the Harrowlanders. Forming an alliance with a djinni king is risky, but Imani will do anything to save her people, even embarking on a dangerous quest beyond the sands to find the magical jewels of Qayn’s lost crown. As Imani journeys far from home, she will discover monsters that warriors have only heard about in myths . . . monsters that can strike at any moment. Meanwhile, her rival, Taha, has been captured and is on a dangerous mission of his own. One wrong move could cost them their lives—and everyone they love. But they may find that there is more than meets the eye crossing the Serpent Sea . . . and betrayal cuts deeper than any dagger. Told from a riveting dual perspective, critically acclaimed author Maiya Ibrahim dives into the complexities of love and war in her richly imagined Arabian-inspired fantasy.
