A review by aceinit
Throne of the Crescent Moon by Saladin Ahmed
4.0
Read this book. No, seriously, if you are a fan of fantasy literature, read this book. You will enjoy it. I promise.
A beautiful, refreshing, fast-paced and highly original work from beginning to end. Ahmed introduces his readers to a fantasy world familiar yet so very different from what they have encountered before. The Arabian-themed setting was wonderful and the characters are vividly rendered and complex yet so very, very human. The ending surprised me in several ways, and I am now eagerly awaiting the next installment in this series.
