Books

The Father of Beasts is Salim Ibn Ahmad’s first historical novel.

A gut-wrenching journey through real history. Based on the chronicles of the First Crusade, The Father of Beasts is a story of endurance and betrayal, loyalty and memory — where history and legend meet, and even in the darkest hours, resistance is possible.
