De Vertaalzusjes Book order (chronological)

Do not touch the sword. Do not turn the key. Do not open the gate. In the land of the unforgiving desert, there isn't much a girl wouldn't do for a glass of water. Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses, or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares...but it turns out they're real, and Saeris has landed herself right in the middle of a centuries-long conflict that might just get her killed. The first of her kind to tread the frozen mountains of Yvelia in over a thousand years, Saeris mistakenly binds herself to Kingfisher, a handsome Fae warrior, who has secrets and nefarious agendas of his own. He will use her Alchemist's magic to protect his people, no matter what it costs him . . . or her. Death has a name. It is Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate. His past is murky. His attitude stinks. And he's the only way Saeris is going to make it home. Be careful of the deals you make, dear child. The devil is in the details . . .

Step into a spellbinding debut where the future of a magical Middle Eastern kingdom rests in the hands of a clever young con artist with miraculous healing gifts. Nahri, a talented con woman in eighteenth-century Cairo, has always dismissed magic as mere trickery—her palm readings and healings are just clever ruses to survive. However, her life takes a dramatic turn when she accidentally summons a darkly mysterious djinn warrior during one of her scams. This encounter forces her to reconsider everything she knows. The warrior shares an extraordinary tale of Daevabad, the legendary city of brass, teeming with mythical creatures and ancient ruins, to which Nahri finds herself irrevocably tied. Within Daevabad's gilded walls, old resentments simmer among the six djinn tribes, and a young prince harbors dreams of rebellion. As Nahri navigates this new world, she discovers that true power is fierce and brutal, and that magic cannot protect her from the perilous intricacies of court politics. Even the most cunning plans can lead to deadly consequences, reminding her to be cautious about what she wishes for.
