This is the number one work of literature (except from the Christian Bible) that people have heard of but never read. This is due to the controversy it caused when it was published, which resulted in the author receiving death threats (or a fatwa) by the Muslim community for depicting the prophet Muhammad as a paedophile.

Full of magic realism and fantasy elements, The Satanic Verses is a rollercoaster ride of epic proportions. An absolute must read for the secular and religious communities because it makes one think deeply about religious matters.

So glad this book was published! I had thought Dark Queen was the last book but I'm so ecstatic to realize that I was wrong. I really admire authors whose characters can learn to change even if they have to take a few steps back they can still go forward and not start from scratch at each book. Jane definitely does this slowly and not always the best at it but she does. Faith Hunter does a fantastic job at continuity and, yes you HAVE to read the previous books because she interweaves important things from previous books into the narrative. And the twist I didn't see that coming. I can't wait for the next book.
