The Search for Rasha

Bassam Saga, Book 3

De: Paul B. Skousen

Narrado por: Mark Deakins

My dearest Bassam,

Come for me. I am taken away to a dark place. It is the end of my life. I have nothing but this script to console - and my thoughts of you. If these words find you when it is too late, let them comfort you for your life without me at your side. --Forever yours,

Rasha

What is greater than the search for love? Finding the love of your life and having her ripped away.

In the dark of night, a covert group of bandits enters the village of Rekeem and kidnaps Rasha, daughter of the great Abdali-ud-din leader, Zafir. They seek a hefty ransom, and know Zafir will sacrifice everything to win back the safety of his beloved daughter. But it's not just Zafir who wants to find her. Bassam, Zafir's young protégé in the caravans, is deeply in love with Rasha. And he will let nothing stop him from finding her - even a perilous journey - even death.

This epic third installment of the Bassam Saga follows Bassam, Rasha, and a colorful cast of characters on a heroic trek from Rekeem, across Egypt, to the pyramids, and the great Nilus River, and back again. What begins as a quest for lost love becomes a battle for life as the pursuers become the hunted, and realize that not everyone is who they seem. With timeless style and masterful storytelling, Paul B. Skousen leads us on a coming-of-age tale that tests will, valor, wit, and swordsmanship, and ultimately bring us back to love.

OK, but enjoyed the first book best

I still enjoyed the overall story line and felt I really needed to hear the whole story from Book 1-3, but it felt disjointed in parts and lacked having lessons so well defined by the scrolls as they were in previous books. Great narration though!

A Wonderful Saga of Wisdom, Love, and Family

I thoroughly enjoyed this history. For a history it is. It is an inspiration to aspire to, to champion and to sacrifice for. It is a history for the whole family to learn from, and I daresay worth rereading every few years. Thank you Paul.

And here it is!

I've been waiting for this book since forever! My brain still stumbles over the names but I kinda know who they are. Yeah, I'm a liking this series!

Excellent story!

So many little tidbits of wisdom given thru a story of honor, love and courage. Loved it.
