Synopsis: &“A firework of a fantasy novel: vibrant, explosive, deliciously dangerous, and impossibly fun.&” ―Tasha SuriStrap in for a thrilling adventure in the sequel to Davinia Evans's wickedly entertaining debut fantasy that follows our favorite irreverent alchemists, high society ladies, and swashbuckling street gangs as they wrestle with the nature of reality itself. Siyon Velo might be acknowledged as the Alchemist. He may even have stabilized the planes and stopped Bezim from ever shaking into the sea again. But that doesn&’t mean he has any idea what he&’s doing—and it won&’t be long before everyone knows it. To make things worse, mythical creatures once confined to operas and myths are spotted around Bezim. A djinn invades Zagiri&’s garden party, and whispers of a naga slither across Anahid&’s Flower district card tables. Magic is waking up in the Mundane. It&’s up to Siyon to figure out a way to stop it, or everything he&’s worked so hard to save will come crashing down.Praise for The Burnished City: "I loved getting lost in this dazzling debut." ―Shannon Chakraborty, author of The City of Brass "Sheer, glorious fun!" ―Freya Marske, author of A Marvellous LightThe Burnished CityNotorious Sorcerer Shadow Baron Shadow Baron
