The Jasmine Throne begins a new epic fantasy trilogy by Tasha Suri, whose writing here is just as lush and stunning as in her first fantasy series, The Books of Ambha. Margaret Kingsbury at BuzzFeed called The Jasmine Throne “lush and stunning” when she included it in her list of Best Fantasy Books of Spring 2021: Suri is also the author of two well-received fantasy volumes, Empire of Sand and Realm of Ash - though, as Liz Bourke at Tor.com points out in her review of The Jasmine Throne, “ admired them as well-constructed epic fantasy with a strong romantic component, but they never made me feel like this - gobsmacked, a little awestruck, violently satisfied, painfully engaged.” This is shaping up to be one of the major fantasy series of the decade. ![]() The second installment, The Oleander Sword, is due August 16, and early reviews have only heightened the anticipation. The Jasmine Throne, the opening volume in Tasha Suri’s Burning Kingdoms fantasy epic, was named one of the best books of 2021 by Booklist, Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, and the New York Public Library. ![]() The Jasmine Throne and The Oleander Sword (Orbit, June 2021 and August 2022). ![]()
