The City of brass, or the Daevabad Trilogy
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Reading this series reccomended by book club was the absolute best decision. I joined them in reading the last two books and it was so much fun to chat about it all with them. Some say there isn’t enough kissing in these books 👀👀
However, there was not a single complaint about the magic, world building, character arcs, fantasy creatures, epic battles, or how it all ended. For a group of 12+ people that’s a big deal.
These books are like nothing else out there. I know it sounds like a tag line, but it’s the truth. No other story is in this kind of world with this amount of depth and action. I loved and hated each character in turn, the more I learned back stories the more complex everything became. Then add in the moral questions of how do you do what is right when it will still cause hurt to others? I’m sold.
If you like fantasy and feel like everything has started to feel the same, this series is one you need.
