This review is from: Winning Scheherazade (Library Binding)
This book picks up after Scheherazade, the teller of a thousand and one tales, is set free by the king. She is given a comfortable palace and the title of "Storyteller of the Kingdom." What follows next is a strange tale about a stranger who comes to visit Scheherazade's palace, whom she does not care for, and how she decides to take a trip into the desert to be free of him. However, she has no idea what adventure the desert holds for her. I was pretty disappointed by this work. I found all the stories within a story confusing, and the ending left too much questions unanswered. However, it did have many interesting twist and turns, but I don't think this is one of the best fairy tale offshoots.
