The Book of Saladin

A Novel

About this book

"Whether depicting erotically charged harem intrigue or siege warfare,  The Book of Saladin  is an entertaining feat of revisionist storytelling" — The Sunday Times
 
As victories mount and accolades are showered upon the great warrior Saladin, he is nearly deified. He conquers the infidel Franj, or Crusaders, and reclaims the holy city of Jerusalem while remaining true to his senses of honor, justice, and humor. When it comes time for Saladin to record his own story, he turns to a Jewish scribe. In the interlinking stories of The Book of Saladin, the mighty sultan deftly navigates the deep chasms separating Muslims, Christians, and Jews.
