"I never said my wishers were supposed to do any good," said the genie. "In fact, I swore that they would always do as much harm as possible." By day Adbullah is a humble carpet merchant, yet in his dreams he is a prince. But his dreams start to come true when he meets the lovely Flower-in-the-Night. When a hideous djinn carries Flower off into the sky, Adbullah is determined to rescue her - if he can find her, and if he can avoid all the ferocious villains who seem to be after him. But how can he possibly succeed, with only a bad-tempered genie and an unreliable magic carpet to help him?
