An enthralling collection of new and classic tales of the fearsome
Djinn, from bestselling, award-winning and breakthrough international
writers.
Imagine a world filled with fierce, fiery beings, hiding in our shadows,
in our dreams, under our skins. Eavesdropping and exploring; tormenting
us, saving our souls. They are monsters, saviours, victims, childhood
friends.
And they are everywhere. On street corners, behind the wheel of a taxi,
in the chorus, between the pages of books. Every language has a word for
them. Every culture knows their traditions. Every religion, every
history has them hiding in their dark places.
There is no part of the world that does not know them. They are the
Djinn.
