The Mirror And The Maze Book Review

The Mirror & the Maze by Renee Ahdieh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Everything and everyone he loved was in that city. His cousin. His uncle.
Shahrzad.
Everything. Khalid had left everything behind in Rey. Now it was burning.
“And I shall take from you these lives, a thousandfold.”

i think this one was the best of the three novellas , its been a while since i read anything of this series so when i read the mirror and the maze i recognized i really did miss them all , missed the characters and the world building and the beautiful writing style
this one is about Khalid returning to Rey , finding his city on fire , and his heart on stake after shahrazad had left ..

“Look around you, Khalid Ibn al-Rashid. Look around you with the eyes of a man, not the heart of a boy.” It was spoken so softly. Not an admonition, but a plea. Jalal moved closer. “Is it not for the better?”
