The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi by S.A. Chakraborty
4.0
Beautifully written, adventurous, amusing and heartfelt.
I really enjoyed this swashbuckling tale, however it is heavily interwoven with religion, which if that is something you do not resonate with, may take you out of the story at some points. The characters are connected by faith, all be it, differing ones, and this is the basis for a lot of the interactions that are held.
It is refreshing to read a story that has an older heroine, who is conscious that she has changed since her younger years, but that remains at her essence - a force to be reckoned with.
I look forward to more journey's with Amina al-Sirafi!
