The highly anticipated conclusion to the epic award-winning Rebel of the Sands trilogy - a genre-busting Wild West meets Arabian Nights fantasy.
Once, in the desert country of Miraji, there was a Sultan without an heir.
The heir had been killed by his own brother, the treacherous Rebel Prince, who was consumed by jealousy and sought the throne for himself.
Or so it was said by some. There were others who said that the Rebel Prince was not a traitor but a hero . . .
In the final battle for the throne, Amani must fight for everything she believes in, but with the rebellion in pieces, and the Sultan's armies advancing across the desert plains, who will lead, who will triumph, who will live and who will die?

It is a story of innovation sparked by ruin – and of futures forged from unlikely places. Lees meer
