The Jinn : The Awakening

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - What if the beings your grandmother warned you about were real-and one of them chose you Thirteen-year-old Bilal's life shatters during a thunderstorm in Lahore when an ancient Jinn spirit named Azazil bonds with his soul. Overnight, he transforms from an ordinary boy into a vessel-a weapon forged to fight a war three thousand years in the making.The seven deadly sins are not abstract concepts. They are fallen Jinn, spirits of smokeless fire who chose corruption over light. For millennia, Pride, Wrath, Envy, Greed, Gluttony, Sloth, and Lust have whispered into human hearts, amplifying our darkest impulses, feeding on the chaos they create. Now they're hunting Bilal.Fleeing Pakistan with his mother, Bilal arrives in Sharjah, UAE-a city where ancient trade routes meet glass towers, where tradition collides with transformation. Here, in the thin places where our world touches the realm of spirits, he must master six elemental aspects: Fire to burn, Wind to scatter, Stone to endure, Water to adapt, Light to reveal, and Darkness to accept.Each transformation demands a trial. Each trial strips away who Bilal was to reveal who he might become.But power comes with a price. With every aspect he claims, Bilal becomes less human. And the sins are not his only enemy-his absent father harbors secrets, the neutral Jinn who've watched for centuries are choosing sides, and somewhere in the Empty Quarter, an ancient prison is waiting to be sealed.The Jinn: A Novel of Smokeless Fire weaves Islamic mythology into an epic fantasy of elemental transformations, family bonds tested by impossible choices, and the eternal question: can we defeat our shadows without becoming them For readers who loved the cultural richness of Children of Blood and Bone, the transformation systems of Avatar: The Last Airbender, and the family drama of Everything Everywhere All at Once-this is fantasy rooted in a mythology rarely seen in Western literature.Features: - Six elemental transformations with unique abilities- Seven deadly sins reimagined as fallen Jinn- Authentic Pakistani and UAE settings- A mother-son bond at the heart of an epic war- Themes of migration, identity, and choosing who you becomeThe first work of fiction from five-time author Muhammad Bilal-a story born from the myths his grandmother told and the worlds he's called home.
