Great voice and characterization in this fun, unique urban fantasy by B.E. Sanderson. The main character is strong-willed and snarky, which is right up my alley. I don't know a lot about djinn (genies), so this was really fun. It goes way beyond your basic three wishes to a complex society of djinn, a council that oversees them, an ancient war, and what happens if a djinn decides to break the rules that bind them. There's a great array of supporting characters, from Zeke, the powerful ex-boyfriend, to her British partner, to an old female pirate, to a dog who... well, I won't say.
