“A curious, often amusing travelogue of [Sardar’s] quest for understanding and the Muslims he has encountered along his journeys.”—Publishers Weekly Ziauddin Sardar, one of the foremost Muslim intellectuals in Britain, learned the Koran at his mother’s knee in Pakistan. As a young student in London he set out to grasp the meaning of his religion, and, hopefully, to find “paradise,” his quest leading him throughout the Muslim world, from Iran to China to Turkey. Along the way he accepts that he may never reach paradise—but it’s the journey that’s important. At a time when the view of Islam in the West is so often distorted and simplistic, Desperately Seeking Paradise—self-mocking, frank and passionate—is essential reading. “Intoxicating . . . upon finishing the book, I turned back and started reading it all over again.”—Kamila Shamise, New Statesman “At once and earnest and humorous, light-hearted and profound, this is a book that displays a sustained capacity for self-questioning of a kind that has few parallels in the liberal West.”—The Independent “This challenging book not only acts as a guide for Muslims but provides insight and clarification for those outside the Islamic faith.”—Financial Times “The only funny book I’ve read about Islam.”—Mail on Sunday

"The USA TODAY bestselling author of the Ten Tiny Breaths and Burying Water series makes her suspense debut with this sexy, heartpounding story of a young woman determined to find justice after her best friend's death, a story pulsing with the "intense, hot, emotional" (Colleen Hoover) writing that exhilarates her legions of fans. Twenty-eight-year-old Maggie Sparkes arrives in New York City to pack up what's left of her best friend's belongings after a suicide that has left everyone stunned. The police have deemed the evidence conclusive: Celine got into bed, downed a bottle of Xanax and a handle of vodka, and never woke up. But when Maggie discovers secrets in the childhood lock box hidden in Celine's apartment, she begins asking questions. Questions about the man Celine fell in love with. The man she never told anyone about, not even Maggie. The man who Celine herself claimed would be her ruin. On the hunt for answers that will force the police to reopen the case, Maggie uncovers more than she bargained for about Celine's private life--and inadvertently puts herself on the radar of a killer who will stop at nothing to keep his crimes undiscovered"--
The darkness comes: "In an eruption of fury it arose from the sea. Dark and glistening it churned the water with its huge claws. Like a tidal wave it surged towards the shore." The hero dawns: "Facing the charge, on the farthest rock out in the sea stood the lone figure of Zaric. Torn from his wooded village and his first love, Zaric grew in a world of wonder and danger, freedom and fate, all converging on him. A killer seeks him, a mentor trains him as his body is battered and bronzed, his mind whetted and honed, his creativity choked and freed, his anger calmed and enraged as he steps into his birthright and his earned right of The Wizard." The lover watches: "High above Zaric Amareena stood on the Bonehorn Cliffs. She was his white-hot pain in all he chose, his centered joy in all he did. Both were torn between her human elven form and his wizard birth." The world hangs suspended: "Thrust upward and forced to fight far too soon, the young wizard stood on the rock and faced the charging force of monstrous evil." Let The Wizard enchant your mind, and jolt your heart.
