The Kingdom of Copper A Novel

"It was a treat to return to Chakraborty's richly drawn world. [...] engaging, satisfying, and left me looking forward to what comes next." - The Speculative Shelf

"[The City of Brass] reads like an invitation for readers from Baghdad to Fairbanks to meet across impossibly divergent worlds through the shared language and images of the fantastical." - New York Times Book Review

"An extravagant feast of a book-spicy and bloody, dizzyingly magical, and still, somehow, utterly believable." - Laini Taylor, New York Times bestselling author of Strange the Dreamer, on City of Brass

"No series since George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire has quite captured both palace intrigue and the way that tribal infighting and war hurt the vulnerable the most." - Paste Magazine

"[The Kingdom of Copper] is epic fantasy that is shrunk to the perspective of the individual. If you're looking for a compelling, heart-rending drama that just happens to also be one of the most thought-provoking epic fantasies to come out in a long time, look no further." - BookPage

"The second installment of Chakraborty's stunningly rendered Middle Eastern fantasy trilogy...As good or better than its predecessor: promise impressively fulfilled." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Chakraborty plunges right back into the action set up in The City of Brass [...] This intriguing fantasy series appears to be well on its way to an exciting conclusion." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"With gorgeous world building, compelling characters, and clashing schemes, the second in Chakraborty's Daevabad trilogy will thrill her many fans." - Booklist (starred review)

"With a richly immersive setting and featuring complex familial, religious, and racial ties and divides, Chakraborty's second book in the trilogy wraps readers in a lush and magical story that takes over all the senses." - Library Journal (starred review)

"Chakraborty manages what many epic fantasy writers have never achieved: a world where everyone can see themselves not only mirrored, but powerful." - New York Journal of Books

"The City of Brass is more than a promising debut - it beguiles all the way...Chakraborty's research and imagination are equally strong, and she deftly sets up a rich world - and ample suspense - for the rest of this trilogy." - Vulture (The Ten Best Fantasy Books of 2017)
