This was an interesting story and it was nice to see historical records put together into a fairytale like fable that was action packed and inspiring. The translation was done very well and I could understand the story beats very well
Thank you NetGalley for an advanced copy. While not an entire translation, I appreciated the author's notes and explanation in the beginning. I found the sections of the epic well written, with the politics and war strategies easy enough to follow. While not a religious book, I appreciate the positive representation of Muslims during that era. This text would be better for high school world history classes. Reader flag: drug rape. I enjoyed the tale of a strong female warrior, who upholds Muslim values and cultural traditions and will recommend this book for our school library.
