A Sky Beyond the Storm by Sabaa Tahir
The narrative sets into motion with the liberation of the jinn, mystical entities previously confined by humankind, now unleashed to sow chaos. The Nightbringer, a jinn of unparalleled might, yearns for vengeance against the human race, forging an alliance with Keris, the merciless Commandant who has ascended to the role of Empress. Keris harbors a vendetta against Helene and her lineage, the sole survivors of the empire's founding sovereign.
Amidst personal losses, including her brother and beloved, Laia allies with Helene to thwart the designs of the Nightbringer and Keris. Laia's journey reveals her possession of a magical ring, once Cleopatra's, granting her insight into the pharaoh's memories and secrets. This revelation positions Laia as Cleopatra reincarnated, with the Nightbringer embodying Mark Antony, her historical lover.
Elias, ensnared in the Waiting Place—a limbo between life and death—struggles to sever ties with his past and his affection for Laia. Tasked with escorting the deceased to their final resting place, Elias is tormented by the atrocities of the Nightbringer and his jinn. Choosing to forsake the Waiting Place, Elias embarks on a mission to aid Laia and Helene, even at the cost of his oath and his soul's peril.
As the tale progresses, our heroes navigate through trials, adversaries, and treacheries. They forge alliances with new comrades, such as Ben and Anette, a father-daughter duo managing a bookstore and safeguarding Egypt's ancient lore within a clandestine fraternity. They also cross paths with Sterling, a charismatic yet duplicitous adventurer in league with the jinn.
The saga crescendos into an epic clash between light and darkness, determining the destiny of both the realm and its inhabitants. The conclusion offers a mixed tapestry of outcomes—while some characters embrace joy and tranquility, others face sacrifice or loss. Lingering mysteries, including the genesis of the jinn and the divine entities' involvement, remain unresolved, leaving the audience pondering long after the final page is turned.
