NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Library Journal Vulture The Verge SYFYWire

Step into The City of Brass, the spellbinding debut from S. A. Chakraborty, an imaginative alchemy of The Golem and the Jinni, The Grace of Kings, and Uprooted, in which the future of a magical Middle Eastern kingdom rests in the hands of a clever and defiant young con artist with miraculous healing gifts.

Nahri has never believed in magic. Certainly, she has power; on the streets of eighteenth-century Cairo, she's a con woman of unsurpassed talent. But she knows better than anyone that the trades she uses to get by--palm readings, zars, and a mysterious gift for healing--are all tricks, both the means to the delightful end of swindling Ottoman nobles and a reliable way to survive.

But when Nahri accidentally summons Dara, an equally sly, darkly mysterious djinn warrior, to her side during one of her cons, she's forced to reconsider her beliefs. For Dara tells Nahri an extraordinary tale: across hot, windswept sands teeming with creatures of fire and rivers where the mythical marid sleep, past ruins of once-magnificent human metropolises and mountains where the circling birds of prey are more than what they seem, lies Daevabad, the legendary city of brass--a city to which Nahri is irrevocably bound.

In Daevabad, within gilded brass walls laced with enchantments and behind the six gates of the six djinn tribes, old resentments run deep. And when Nahri decides to enter this world, her arrival threatens to ignite a war that has been simmering for centuries.

Spurning Dara's warning of the treachery surrounding her, she embarks on a hesitant friendship with Alizayd, an idealistic prince who dreams of revolutionizing his father's corrupt regime. All too soon, Nahri learns that true power is fierce and brutal. That magic cannot shield her from the dangerous web of court politics. That even the cleverest of schemes can have deadly consequences.

After all, there is a reason they say to be careful what you wish for . . .

--Michael J. Sullivan, New York Times bestselling author of the Riyria Revelations

Perfect for playtime and exercise
Color: White
I’ve been using this automatic dog ball launcher since the day I received it, and it has honestly been amazing for both me and my dog. My pup took to it surprisingly fast, and now he plays with it every day without getting bored. I love the adjustable distance settings because I can use it indoors or outdoors depending on the weather. The toy is a very good size and quite practical. In the days I’ve been using it, the product's quality has really stood out, as it has proven to be highly effective. I believe it offers excellent value for the quality, and I recommend it if you are looking to keep your pet entertained.

Do Not Use The Balls That Come With It!
Color: White
This ball machine shows 6 meters or 19 feet. Unlike other ball launchers this is too powerful for indoor use. But I found that if you use different balls through experimentation then there are some that do not go as far.

100 de 100 fabuloso
Color: White, Color: White
The best gift for my dog! I absolutely loved the design and its features—I can adjust the ball-launching distance, and the fact that it’s rechargeable is fantastic. The material of the balls is durable, too. My dog’s name is Oreo; I set up his toy in the yard, and it was so much fun watching him play outdoors. I’m currently teaching him how his new toy works. I highly recommend this for our four-legged babies—5 stars!
