I'd recommend the Daevabad trilogy by S.A. Chakraborty. It's a fantasy story based on One Thousand and One Nights that starts in Egypt but spends most of the time in Daevabad (the world of djinn). It's a highly developed world with thousands of years of politics and history, magic, romance, war, and betrayal. I think it's especially strong highlighting how war impacts all levels of society and how Nahri interacts with traditional power structures as a woman in Middle Eastern society. One of my favorite series I've read recently.
