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

Soft, Complete Set & Great Value
Color: 01 - Grey, Size: California King, Color: 01 - Grey, Size: California King
I’m really impressed with this comforter set! The material is super soft and comfortable, and it feels great for all seasons, not too heavy but still cozy. I love that it comes with everything you need, which makes it a great value for the price. The gray color is exactly as pictured and gives a clean, modern look to the room. After washing, it held up well with no issues. Overall, a great quality set that I would definitely recommend!

Holds up beautifully—even after lots of washes
Color: 02 - Olive Green, Size: Queen, Color: 02 - Olive Green, Size: Queen
This is a beautiful bed set and has held up incredibly well over time. I’ve washed it dozens of times now and figured it was finally time to write a review because it still looks and feels great. No issues with quality, stitching, or softness—it’s held up flawlessly. The material is soft, warm, and comfortable, and it really pulls the whole look together in our camper bedroom. Definitely one of those sets that looks good and lasts.

So comfortable and awesome price.
Color: 01 - Grey, Size: Queen, Color: 01 - Grey, Size: Queen
I really like this bed set. The comforter is soft to touch and is comfortable. It’s weird and funny to say, but my cat really loves it too. The quality is very good! I got it on sale for $30.00… a set that comes with a comforter, fitted sheet, top sheet, 2 regular pillow cases and 2 decorative pillow cases is a win for me. It arrived on time, and came packaged really well. The picture below is showing of how they came in a box from bedsure, the sheets/ pillow cases and comforter come separated in different clear vacuum sealed bags. There are directions on how to open the sealed bags, but I just cut the top of both bags open at the top, and you hear a “pooof” noise, the blanket raised up. I let it air out for a few hours and then put it on my bed and it looked amazing.

Beautiful Color & Texture – Instantly Upgraded My Bedroom
Color: 07 - Mineral Blue, Size: King, Color: 07 - Mineral Blue, Size: King
I absolutely love this comforter set. The color is rich and calming, and the textured detailing adds such a classy, elegant touch. It looks way more expensive than it actually is and completely transformed my bedroom. The fabric feels soft and smooth, and it lays nicely on the bed without looking stiff. It gives that clean, polished hotel vibe but still feels cozy and comfortable. My only small complaint is the size of the comforter. I wish it were a little bigger, especially for fuller coverage on the sides of the bed. If you like that oversized, draped look, you may want to size up if possible. Other than that, it’s perfect. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something stylish and affordable.

King size comforter
Color: 11 - Black, Size: California King
I’ve had this black king-size comforter for some time now, and it remains one of my favorite purchases. The comforter is thick, incredibly warm, and ideal for winter. I love the scrunched, textured design, which gives it a modern, stylish look, and the deep black color adds a sleek, elegant touch. It also came with both a set of pillowcases and a fitted sheet, along with a standard flat sheet, offering great versatility. Even now, it adds both style and comfort to my bedroom, and I couldn’t be happier with its quality.
