The River of Silver takes us back to the world of Chakraborty’s Daevabad, offering an anthology of fifteen tales, snippets, prologues, and cut scenes that enrich the world of the novels, provide fresh new insight into many of the series’ characters, and give additional context for some of the events we’ve already seen unfold. And the trilogy’s ending is fantastically bittersweet: deserved, and earned, to be sure, but full of both triumph and heartbreak. This story is beautifully written and densely plotted, mixing questions of faith, family, conquest, and identity in a tale that offers no easy answers or glib platitudes to the complex questions it raises.
Chakraborty’s Daevabad trilogy- The City of Brass, The Kingdom of Copper, and The Empire of Gold-is a rich, vividly imagined historical fantasy full of epic adventure, complex politics, and a long and bloody history of conflict between the human world and that of the djinn, most of which takes place in a magical city known as Daevabad.
