The Wrath and the Dawn by Renee Ahdieh is a fantastic re-imagining of the Arabian Nights tale. Shahrzad has lost her best friend to the hands of the caliph. Her heart is filled with a vengeance as she takes on the dangerous task of volunteering to be the bride of a monster who has his brides killed at dawn. As Shahrzad prepares to make the caliph answer for her friends’ death, she must stay alive long enough to rid him of his life as she spins tales of wonder and adventure every night that stretch into another dawn and another day of life. As she continues, she finds that the caliph, or rather Khalid, has more to him than the monster he is known to be. She discovers that there is so much more to the deaths of the brides as well. How will Shahrzad uncover the mysteries and save her home from even more impending danger? Find out more by reading The Wrath and the Dawn today.
