This Woven Kingdom by Tahereh Mafi is the New York Times bestselling epic young adult fantasy novel that launches a spellbinding trilogy inspired by Persian mythology, weaving a lush, high-stakes tale of empire, hidden magic, and forbidden romance.
Told through rich, atmospheric, and alternating perspectives, the narrative plunges readers into a fracturing world on the brink of an explosive war between a volatile human empire and the magical, fire-born Jinn. To the bustling capital city, Alizeh is nothing but a disposable, silent servant girl working herself to the bone to remain completely invisible in a society that hates her kind. In reality, she is the long-lost crown queen of the Jinn, hiding a lethal lineage and a unique, ancient power that she must fiercely protect to survive the kingdom’s brutal surveillance state. Her forced isolation begins to crack when she crosses paths with Kamran, the fiercely intelligent and duty-bound crown prince of the human empire, who is slated to inherit a throne built on deep political intrigue and ancient blood feuds. When a chaotic chain of events forces them into a dangerous, high-stakes collision, a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers tension ignites between them, threatening to expose Alizeh’s deadliest secrets to a highly suspicious royal court. As the fragile peace of the entire empire begins to unravel, both must navigate a treacherous landscape of shifting loyalties and prophecies, knowing that their forbidden connection could completely upend the kingdom and destroy the future of both their peoples.
