from back...In a magnificant setting, hauntingly evacative of medieval Spain, The Lions of Al-Rassan is both a brilliant adventure and a deeplly moving story of love, divided loyalties, and what happens to man and women when hardening beliefs begin to remake - or destroy - a world.

My thoughts - About the collision between the Arabs, Jews and the Christians trying to retake Spain. Classified as a fantasy book. I found the characters believable and the whole situation somewhat tragic
