In this novel, Abdel-Magid takes us to the land that dominates the current scene and to which all eyes are turned—a land in need of a talisman of hope, a land that was once, and will always remain, an icon of goodness and beauty. A journey spanning from 9691 AD to the end of 3202 AD, it reveals traditions and customs that were never spoken of before, and political and social conflicts that ultimately forced many to leave the country against their will. But despite the pain and corruption, despite the death and destruction, the stories remain alive, told and immortalized on the pages of history. And in the end, the talismans must return to their land, for no matter how far apart they may be, the reunion is inevitable. History does not forget; injustice always ends in its demise!
