Genies can grant wishes - but only those of others. And wishes can be negated by the wishes of any other.On the genie home world, wishes must be made in a collective, and have a majority intention to manifest. Small, unobtrusive wishes can be manifest easily enough by all genies for their everyday life (most of the time) but for anything big, it has to be a collective effort. Eventually their society evolved to a state much like that of Earth - Capitalism matured into dominance in the way it does. The wealthy and powerful employed vast cities of other genies to make the big wishes of the Grand Council come true, exclusively. But as with all societies with disparity, rebellion brewed beneath the surface. Divided by Light is a rich and imaginative novel that delves into the complex interplay of rebellion, survival, and sacrifice in a world powered by the mystical and unstable Wishstream. Glenn Friesen crafts a vivid universe populated by elemental genies - the fiery Efreet, fluid Marid, and ethereal Djinn - whose existence revolves around harnessing and sustaining a collective source of energy. With a powerful blend of speculative fiction, environmental allegory, and socio-political critique, this story is both entertaining and thought-provoking. >In a world lit by two moons and powered by the Wishstream, the genies - fiery Efreet, fluid Marid, and ethereal Djinn - live under the rule of the Djinn elite. The New Moon Plan promises endless prosperity, but its cost is devastating. As the new moon rises, the Wishstream fractures. The sky darkens. The world begins to fall apart. Workers and rebels see the truth: the plan is not salvation but destruction. Whispers of rebellion turn to action. Mirah, a guilt-ridden Djinn engineer, and Vela, a fearless Efreet rebel, lead the fight to save their world. As alliances break and chaos grows, they face hard truths about power and sacrifice. When the moons shatter, will they rebuild - or fall with the ruins? Divided by Light is a fast-paced tale of rebellion, survival, and the fight for a new future. When wishes fail, what will they risk to save their world?
