Welcome to the Empty Quarter, the domain of Djinn, ghouls, demons and the effrit who take the shapes of beasts. You used to walk among us, and we among you, but now things are different. Now we are Unseen . . .
A solid choice for fans of Philip Pullman, Neil Gaiman, and/or Neal Stephenson, G. Willow Wilson's Alif the Unseen utilizes energetic plotting, nimble imagery, intellectual ambition, and lyrical details to create an unconventional, yet timely, parallel universe of the jinn.
"Witty, imaginative and unorthodox in all senses ... Brilliant!" -- The Observer
