Stone of Destiny e-bog

For centuries, caravans of camels have travelled Turkeys Silk Roads piled high with exotic cargoes from India, Arabia and China. When a poor stonecutter called Salahaddin makes a miraculous find, he sets off on a perilous journey along the Silk Road to Istanbul and resorts to telling stories to stay alive. Brimming with scents, sounds and sinister merchants, this rich hoard of stories including The Prince, the Nightingale and the Silent Princess, All for a Wrinkled Pomegranate, The Salt and The Golden Watermelons is stylishly illustrated by Paul Hess and makes a sparkling introduction to a land still steeped in mystery.
