The novel follows a sheltered prince, a smuggler of illegal magical artifacts who’s known as the Midnight Merchant, and a jinn-killer thief (Mazen, Loulie, and Aisha respectively) as they seek a legendary lamp and the jinn found within it. Told from multiple points of view-Mazen, Loulie, Aisha-and with many story interludes, The Stardust Thief is full of layered and lovable characters, an interesting plot with many unexpected twists, and a beautifully rendered Arab-inspired world. Inspired by stories from One Thousand and One Nights, and infused with a love of stories, storytelling, and myths, The Stardust Thief takes the reader on a thrilling adventure. The Stardust Thief by Chelsea Abdullah, the first in the Sandsea Trilogy, is a beautiful and compelling fantasy debut.
