review 1: An excellent collection of short stories, from the excellent author, Saladin Ahmed. His first novel is excellent, and this collection continues it. He includes a short story from that universe, chronicling how two of the main characters met. The other stories, the majority of which feature characters of Islamic faith and of Middle Eastern descent, an in a variety of settings, from the golden age of the Caliphate to fantastical, to the American West, and beyond. Highly recommended.
review 2: I bought this anthology because I recently purchased the author's book "Throne of the Crescent Moon" and heard there was some tie-in stories in this anthology. What I didn't realize was how much more I was getting. The fantasy genre as a whole is largely based in a medieval
... moreEuropean/English setting, and while don't get me wrong I love this, such a distinct break from this mold is not only welcome but encouraged. Saladin Ahmed brings a life and a certain passion to his work and with stories crossing sub-genres you won't want to miss out. There wasn't a story I didn't love and I encourage everyone else to experience this as well. less
