The djinn is an invisible spirit with a will of its own that may lurk at the bottom of your teacup or seep through your pores to possess you. Djinns have long been an explanation for illness and misfortune or an excuse for unconventional behavior. Barbara Drieskens investigates possession, manifestations, and concepts of person and space. She also explores the importance of storytelling in Egyptian society and recounts first-hand experiences of djinns in this unique ethnographic study. Barbara Drieskens is a researcher at the Institut Français du Proche-Orient in Beirut, Lebanon.

If you fear one thing in life, fear the djinn. This groundbreaking book presents the findings of Rosemary Ellen Guiley and Philip J. Imbrogno's investigation into the powerful and mysterious interdimensional beings known as djinn or genies. It reveals what the djinn are, where they can be found—and their hidden agenda against the human race. Working with material compiled from a variety of sources—including their own case files, Middle Eastern lore, the Qur'an, teachings of Islamic scholars, and the latest theories in quantum physics—the authors explore the relationship between the djinn, demons, fairies, shadow people, and extraterrestrials. They discuss the military's interest in these clandestine beings, offer eyewitness accounts of modern human encounters with the djinn, and reveal the location of interdimensional entry points in North America.

In Varieties of Muslim Experience, anthropologist Lawrence Rosen explores aspects of Arab Muslim life that are, at first glance, perplexing to Westerners. He ranges over such diverse topics as why Arabs eschew portraiture, why a Muslim scientist might be attracted to fundamentalism, and why the Prophet must be protected from blasphemous cartoons. What connects these seemingly disparate features of Arab social, political, and cultural life? Rosen argues that the common thread is the importance Arabs place on the negotiation of interpersonal relationships—a link that helps to explain actions as seemingly unfathomable as suicide bombing and as elusive as Quranic interpretation. Written with eloquence and a deep knowledge of the entire spectrum of Muslim experience, Rosen’s book will interest not only anthropologists and Islamicists but anyone invested in better understanding the Arab world.

Indelbed is a lonely kid living in a crumbling mansion in super dense, super chaotic Dhaka. His father, Dr. Kaikobad, is the black sheep of their clan, the once illustrious Khan Rahman family. A drunken loutish widower, he refuses to allow Indelbed to go to school and the only thing Indelbed knows about his mother is the official cause of her early demise: 'Death by Indelbed'. But when Dr. Kaikobad falls into a supernatural coma, Indelbed and his older cousin, the wise-cracking slacker, rais, learn that Indelbed's dad was, in fact, a magician and a trusted emissary to the djinn world. But the djinns, it turns out, are displeased and one of the consequences of their displeasure is that a 'hunt' is announced with ten-year-old Indelbed as prey. Still reeling from the fact that genies actually exist, Indelbed finds himself on the run. Soon, the boys are at the center of a great djinn controversy, one tied to the continuing fallout from an ancient war, with ramifications for the future of life as we know it. Djinn city is a darkly comedic fantasy adventure and a brilliant follow-up to Saad Z. Hossain's acclaimed first novel escape from Baghdad.

A blind man searches for his wife in the dark; a missing boy roams the desert; a djinn appears out of a human skull; a sick nomad returns to his home town; a brother and sister arrive in an unfamiliar town at the stroke of midnight... Author Samantha Herron has spent time living with a family of former nomads in Morocco's Draa Valley on the edge of the Sahara Desert, where she immersed herself in the language, culture and traditions of the country. She became captivated by the ancient art of storytelling, which she found to be alive and thriving informally amongst the community in which she was living. She began collecting stories that she was hearing and then found herself imagining and composing her own. This debut collection of her stories, all set in contemporary Morocco, takes the reader on a journey into the hearts and minds of ordinary Moroccans and offers a glimpse into life in this magical and ancient land.

Contrary to myth, Jinn do not inhabit lamps and give three wishes. Instead, certain types of Jinn inhabit humans and wild creatures. Since the first great war of the heavens, the most feared and respected of the Jinn have been the Marid Djinns. We know them as Fates. In ancient times, they led soldiers on a suicide mission against an unstoppable Persian army and continued to work their magic on the battlefields of Rome. Now, in present times, the Marid Djinns turn their focus to other pressing concernslike young Banter Styles, for instance. Banter grows up detesting his super rich father and extravagant life of privilege. When he is attacked one day, he realizes the necessity for protection and studies weapons and self-defense instead of the family business. He is haunted by strange dreams that a wise woman helps him solve. Eventually, his true purpose is revealed as he faces the three mythological Marid Djinns, rediscovering who he is and his potential. With their help, Banter can put his enemies underground, but the Marid Djinns wield great power with zero conscience. Can they be trusted as his allies, or will a battle between immortal gods lead to apocalypse and death?
