Genie
Genies, often linked to the legendary tales of One Thousand and One Nights, are magical beings best known for their wish-granting powers. While they are closely related to djinn in Middle Eastern mythology, in literature and popular culture genies are often reimagined as spirits bound to lamps, bottles, or other objects, waiting to be summoned by those who discover them.
Books marked with the Genie tag may feature classic stories of wishes with unexpected consequences, playful or mischievous spirits who challenge their masters, or modern reimaginings that give new depth to this enduring figure. Genies are frequently used to explore themes of desire, temptation, freedom, and the responsibility that comes with great power.
From whimsical fairy-tale retellings to darker fantasy interpretations, the figure of the genie continues to inspire stories that capture the imagination, reminding readers that every wish carries both promise and peril.
