   Nenhum(a) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. What a beautiful and colourful story! One of the best books I read this year. (  ) weaver-of-dreams | Aug 1, 2023 |  Jinn are hunted because their blood contains magic and produces magical relics. Loulie al- Nazari forges the relics with the assistance of her jinn bodyguard. Loulie becomes the midnight merchant and earns herself a reputation worthy of a king. Through blackmail, the king recruits Loulie, a thief, and his son to find a relic said to revive the barren land. Chelsea Abdullah has reimagined the lore found in “One Thousand and One Nights” into one cohesive work. The Stardust Thief has three perspectives that weave the plot. The three perspectives allowed for surprises while justifying secrets. Truly an enjoyable retelling fantasy. (  ) RandyMorgan | Jul 6, 2023 | This tale of jinns and other magical creatures living in hidden desert communities wore on my last nerve. And this is the first of a trilogy. I probably will not indulge in parts 2 and 3.
