Under the Full and Crescent Moon

Description

A young woman realizes her power and place in the world while defending her city from zealotry in a battle of words and beliefs during the Islamic Golden Age.

On the medieval hilltop city of Medina’tul-Agham, Khadija’s idyllic life as the daughter of the city’s leading jurist is shattered when fanatic forces weaponize Sharia law to threaten the community’s matriarchy. Can Khadija live up to her father’s legacy and use the power of her parchment and quill to write fatwas fighting injustice, or will the peace and prosperity of the city be nothing more than a footnote in the annals of history?
