When I was a child I loved to read tranditional tales and legends from around the world. Fantasy has somewhat scratched that itch, but it was always limited to an anglo-saxon pov (thanks, JRRT). I really enjoy how new authors get out of that anglo-saxon box. S. A. Chakraborty bases her world on the Muslim world in the 19th century, with fantastic elements like Djinns and Marids… I think I'll like this book.
