This book contains several short stories about Arabian Knights (not Nights!) that are very similar to fables and folk tales that we read as kids, however the characters differ, and the societal rules quite are quite different. However, the moralistic leanings of the stories are very similar to fables. Generosity, humbleness, fairness, and the like are all represented here by the Knight's tales. I think my favorite part of the stories was the way the language read. A line for example "Al Numan pondered Hanthala's words for a while as his conflicted emotions chased one another across his face". Colorful use of words and tempo, but no understanding is lost whatsoever. I think you will sincerely enjoy the Knight's tales, and frankly, you can't beat the download price!
