Samarkand, the fabled city and beloved home to Princess Sharon, is under threat from a million Mongol barbarians. Daughter to Amrath, cousin to the emir of Samarkand, she is left within the palace as the battles begin.

Despite the emir's reluctance to admit the city will perish, Amrath forms his defenses in preparation for the oncoming onslaught.

The Mongol, led by the crazed khan, Kabul, are on their way. Destroying villages and anything on their way to Samarkand.

Soon, the city's is breached and a full force attack begins. Kabul's horde is braced meet Amrath's mighty army, awaiting the final clash of swords...

Sharon has only one choice to make: to stay and try to survive - or run.

Fleeing to the hills against the burning backdrop of her former home, she meets the tribe of the Kazir.

The seers of the Kazir people prophesied that the Kazir people would once again rule Samarkand.

Could Sharon hold the key to this prophecy?

Meanwhile, Kabul, maimed for life by Sharon on her escape, is desperate to seek revenge and destroy her.

Kabul is determined to find her out and when he does, there is no stopping him... he will get his revenge...

And so will Sharon...

Samarkand Dawn

Samarkand: Book 2

Graham Diamond

SHE WILL HAVE HER REVENGE...

Behind the bloody walls of the palace, Samarkand's ruthless new ruler, the great Khan, controls the city with force and depravity.

His sons, each one more foul than the next, support him: the swaggering Khalkali, the drug-addicted Mufiqua, the deformed Tupol. But each son would prefer to rule in the Khan's place.

Treachery, deceit and lechery are rife within the palace.

And far below, deep within the catacombs, a shrouded figure plans to use that dissension for the downfall of nine men. It is the Princess Sharon, once heir to the throne.

She has been transformed by the Khan's cruelty into an avenging angel. And she has also been transformed, by the hidden secrets of the hill tribesmen, into a devil sorceress.

The princess will have her revenge.

None will stand in her way...
