The River of Silver by S. A. Chakraborty and Shannon Chakraborty

Bestselling author S.A. Chakraborty's acclaimed Daevabad Trilogy is expanded with this compilation of stories from before, during, and after the events of The City of Brass, The Kingdom of Copper, and The Empire of Gold.

I loved spending more time with these characters! I am so glad I read these after I finished the trilogy. These are just the right look in on these characters. We see most of the characters and get a little more insight about them. It was just the right amount of the right characters.

I like the alternative ending more.

I needed more Nahri and Ali

The Daevabad Trilogy is my favorite fantasy series of all time and it was so nice to be back in the world with the characters I love. It's been over a year since my last reread so I was a bit worried about not understanding what was going on, but I was quickly thrust back into the world I love so much as if no time has passed. This was one of my most anticipated books of the year, and I was not at all disappointed! While the stories in here were not integral to the Daevabad Trilogy, it does add so much more. There's many stories throughout many points of the books, before, and even after the series is over and from many character's POVs that you don't get to see in the original books. I love everything Chakraborty writes, and it was nice to have that “coming home” feeling with this collection.

Thank you to Avon, HarperVoyager, and NetGalley for providing me with an eBook copy to review.
