About this audiobook
Baghdad, 1258. Amira works as a scribe in the legendary House of Wisdom, preserving manuscripts that hold centuries of knowledge. When Mongol armies surround the city under Hulagu Khan, she's given an impossible task: smuggle the most precious texts out before the library burns. Racing against the siege, Amira must navigate treacherous politics, forge unlikely alliances with scholars and soldiers, and make impossible choices about which knowledge deserves to survive. With only days before the walls fall, she carries the weight of civilization in her hands.
