Publisher Description
New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestseller from the acclaimed author of the Shatter Me series! Clashing empires, forbidden romance, and a long-forgotten queen destined to save her people—Tahereh Mafi’s first in an epic romantasy series inspired by Persian mythology.
To all the world, Alizeh is a disposable servant, not the long-lost heir to an ancient Jinn kingdom forced to hide in plain sight.
The crown prince, Kamran, has heard the prophecies foretelling the death of his king. But he could never have imagined that the servant girl with the strange eyes, the girl he can’t put out of his mind, would one day soon uproot his kingdom—and the world.
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Leigh Bardugo, and Sabaa Tahir, this is the explosive first book in a new romantasy series from the New York Times bestselling and National Book Award–nominated author Tahereh Mafi.
“In a tale as exquisitely crafted as one of Alizeh’s own garments, Mafi weaves a spell of destiny and danger, forbidden love and courtly intrigue, magic and revolution.” —Cassandra Clare, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Hours
“This Woven Kingdom is an exquisite fantasy. Rich with clever prose, delicious twists, and breathtaking world building. Prepare to be destroyed—this one will wrench at your heart and make it pound, and in the end it will leave you entirely speechless.” —Stephanie Garber, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Caraval series

You’ll weep and cheer through this sweeping fantasy where love and destiny clash. Lowly scullery maid Alizeh is actually the secret queen of the kingdom of Ardunia…and the heir to mysterious powers. Thanks to a prophecy that states she’ll one day take back her rightful throne, Alizeh must stay hidden or the current king’s assassins will dispose of her. But that plan goes awry when Alizeh’s noticed by the crown prince, Kamran. As Alizeh fights to stay alive, Kamran wrestles with his duty to his royal grandfather and his growing feelings for Alizeh. This star-crossed romance based on an epic Persian poem will pluck at every last one of your heartstrings.
