Djinn is a mature, historical-adventure series that blends Orientalist fantasy, political intrigue, and erotic undertones, set primarily within the late Ottoman Empire. The story follows Jade, a young woman drawn into a dangerous world of power, desire, and secrets surrounding the Sultan’s harem. The first volume, La Favorite, establishes the tone of the series with its rich atmosphere, slow-burn storytelling, and detailed historical backdrop.

Ana Mirallès’ artwork is especially notable for its lush, painterly style, expressive characters, and meticulous depiction of Middle Eastern settings and costumes. The combination of sophisticated narrative and striking visuals has made Djinn a respected and collectible European comic series.

In Turkey, the series was published between 2004 and 2008, with a total of 4 issues released. As the opening volume, Gözde holds particular importance for collectors interested in European albums and Turkish first editions.
