New windows onto Daevabad
The River of Silver expands the Daevabad Trilogy through short fiction set before, during, and after the three novels. Its stories shift the vantage point beyond the trilogy’s central arc, including figures who are admired, resented, or unheard in the novels. The collection returns to a hidden kingdom shaped by djinn, royal power, rebellion, dangerous bargains, and political conflict. Individual pieces introduce a would-be queen navigating a court’s violent past, an imprisoned royal encountering a displaced young woman, and scouts uncovering something consequential in a cursed winter wood. Material connected to Manizheh’s rebellion and events following The Empire of Gold places the volume as an additional chapter around the trilogy’s larger timeline.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Fans of the Daevabad Trilogy seeking additional stories and perspectives
- Fantasy readers interested in djinn, court politics, and dynastic conflict
- Readers who enjoy interconnected short-story collections set within an established world
