But the arrival of strangers from across the desert threatens the delicate balance that Sarai’s family have established for themselves. Meanwhile, back in Weep, a girl named Sarai and her siblings live in a citadel and subsist on what little food they can grow, hiding their existence and the powers from the city below. The only name he could give to the city now was Weep.
Fifteenish years ago, Lazlo reached into his memory for the name of the city and found that its real name was gone from his mind. Two hundred years ago, the travelers stopped coming. For many centuries, travelers came to Lazlo’s country on camels, bringing stories of a city of domes and marvels. Lazlo Strange has always been a dreamer, and what he’s dreamt of is the lost city across the desert. Strange the Dreamer is the first in a new series (her earlier one having finished up with Dreams of Gods and Monsters in 2014), and it’s a hell of a ride. Have we talked about how many ideas Laini Taylor has got? The inside of her brain must be an absolutely wild place to be.
