Janan, a timid genie, has spent her whole life on the run. All she wants is to live a safe, quiet life but finds herself at the center of a djinn uprising led by Ahriman, the malicious, domineering djinn who created her and wants nothing more than revenge on her for escaping his reach.

As his creation, Janan is the one thing that stands between Ahriman and the tide of death and dark magic his revolt against the djinn government will unleash for djinn and humans alike. Standing against him will cost her what little safety and humanity she has left. But if she can't, he will destroy her, her family, and the very fabric of djinn and human society. For Janan to have any hope of survival, she will have to accept her true nature and claim her long-feared power or lose her family and world forever.
