Alif the Unseen by G. Willow Wilson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Finally completed the book! I liked the book when its telling about the djinns. But i got bored sometimes when they go all programming. I really wished there is more ‘fantasy’ than tech. Overall i do think it is brilliant to try and concile two extreme realities the unseen djinn and the unseen computer programming using the alf yeom as the link. I really wish there is more to the alf yeom and alf layl revealed along the way. I guess i was really expecting an aladdin kind of story mashed up with technology.
In any case, nice to have a mainstream muslim author in the scene. Keep writing More stories Willow!
