Summary
Despite a lifetime spent avoiding impure thoughts and temptations, Ali figured a plan could come in handy. He would never agree to spar with a weapon that he hadn’t trained with. Or at least he recognized that it was a bad idea when he did agree. And he would never submit a proposal without doing the requisite research. A little studying couldn’t hurt.

Or: Ali prepares for his wedding night.

Summary
Ali found his mind racing back over recent conversations, wondering what Muntadhir might be preparing to talk to him about. Had his poor timing angered one of their supporters at the court? Had he managed to offend another Daeva nobleman with his stumbling Divasti? Had his latest tax proposal gone too far and upset the balance they were trying to create between the tribes? He found himself tensing as Muntadhir opened his mouth to speak.
“Why haven’t you married Nahri yet?”

Five years after the events of The Empire of Gold, Muntadhir sits Ali down for a conversation. They could both benefit from each other's support.

Summary
Today marked one year since that night; the night Nahri didn’t want to think about. And yet, it was on her mind all day. It’s been one year since the little faith she’d put in the people she’d found in Daevabad was shattered completely. Though really, she should have known better.

Summary
Before the six tribes of djinn woke to their new reality marked by Suleiman’s curse, daevas lived in a vastly different world. Loose tribes that followed one of the seven kings roamed the desert sands, carried on scorching winds, and vanished into the unseen realms. Worshiped as vengeful or merciful gods among humankind, there was little for which to want. Anything that was wanted could be taken.
But times are changing. A human king rises in Jerusalem, fabled to hold a great and terrible power over all in creation, and no one is safe. As kingdoms are built on the backs of those who once were gods themselves, the need for survival and freedom forces the djinn kings into desperate decisions and dangerous new alliances to save their people from the slavery into which they have been trapped. But who will shape the face of their new freedom?
While the old world is buried under the foundations of the First Temple of Suleiman, a healer seeks a place in the new world order, a shapeshifter is torn between two worlds, and a leader seeks only freedom for his people.
In the end, history is written by the victors.

Summary
Picking up after the fateful encounter in Babili, Dara, Zaynab, and Aqisa venture out into the world searching for ifrit and slave vessels. Their uncertain friendship is tested when, ensnared by magic they don't understand, events start to spiral out of control. In the aftermath of a catastrophic run-in with the ifrit, Dara finds himself once more facing the monsters from his past, including those that lie within. Zaynab and Aqisa, returned to Daevabad, race against a clock that may already have run out to stop the ifrit before they can use their corrupted magic to crush the home that has only just started to rebuild. In an approximation of peace, the peris are biding their time as well, seeking the key to harnessing a weapon that could allow them to seek their revenge for Nahri's defiance. As calamitous powers come closer to a devastating collision, an unlikely trio must find strength in their differences and uncover hope in tragedy to save each other and their home.

Summary
What if instead of dragging Dara away from his bromance with Khyzur (that's what was going on there, right?), Nahri found Dara's slave vessel when he was still in it? Dara thinks Nahri is just the next human master-soon to be the latest line in his slave mark. Nahri does not know what the hell she has managed to steal this time. They still end up on a path to Daevabad but with very different shape to their relationship.
