Notes
- From the series record (The Daevabad Trilogy): A completed trilogy drawing on Islamic folklore and Middle Eastern history (18th-century Cairo and a hidden djinn city). The City of Brass received multiple award nominations (Crawford Award, Compton Crook Award, Locus Award, British Fantasy Award, World Fantasy Award) and Chakraborty was a 2019 John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer finalist -- all nominations, per Wikipedia's own bibliography page; no win was independently confirmed for any of these and none is registered as such.
