THE SCRIBE OF BAGHDAD

The Night the Tigris Ran Black with Ink

About this book

In 1258, the Mongol army came to Baghdad, and one of the greatest cities of the medieval world was thrown into chaos.

Rashid is a young scribe who spends his days copying, repairing, and protecting books. When the city begins to fall, he carries what he can through streets filled with smoke, fear, and destruction. But as Baghdad collapses around him, saving books becomes inseparable from helping the people caught in the catastrophe.

Set against the real destruction of Baghdad, The Scribe of Baghdad is a story of books, survival, and the fragile things people carry when everything familiar is being lost.
