Um þessa rafbók
The Middle-East meets the Wild West in this lush fantasy novel about a hardened gunslinger who finally embraces her power and escapes into a mystical desert where Djinn roam free.
“Buckle up for a wild ride!”—Alison Goodman, New York Times bestselling author of Eon and Eona
“This atmospheric fantasy combines magic, mythology, and the Wild West to create a riveting tale.”—Booklist, starred review
Mortals rule the desert nation of Miraji, but mythical beasts still roam the wild and remote areas, and rumor has it that somewhere Djinn still perform their magic. For humans, it’s an unforgiving place, especially if you’re poor, orphaned, or female.
Amani Al’Hiza is all three.
She’s a gifted gunslinger with perfect aim, but she can’t shoot her way out of Dustwalk, the back-country town where she’s destined to wind up wed or dead.
Then Amani meets Jin—a rakish foreigner—in a shooting contest and sees him as the perfect chance to escape. But though she’s spent years dreaming of leaving Dustwalk, she never imagined she’d gallop away on mythical horse—or that it would take a foreign fugitive to show her the heart of the desert she thought she knew.

Um höfundinn
Alwyn Hamilton was born in Toronto and spent her childhood bouncing between Europe and Canada until her parents settled in France. She grew up in a small town there, which might have compelled her to burst randomly into the opening song from Beauty and the Beast were it not for her total tone-deafness. She instead attempted to read and write her way to new places and developed a weakness for fantasy and cross-dressing heroines. She left France for Cambridge University to study history of art at King’s College, and then to London, where she became indentured to an auction house. She has a bad habit of acquiring more hardcovers than is smart for someone who moves quite so often.
