About This Book:
Set in Baghdad's 9th century Caliphal court, amid the same great halls previously governed by the famed Abbasid Caliph Harun al-Rashid, his son, al-Amin, is now the reigning head of history's most prominent and affluent Islamic empire. The Islamic Golden Age blossomed during Harun al-Rashid's reign, representing an age of unmatched scientific, theological, and creative achievements. However, al-Amin is tasked with sustaining his father's huge kingdom, and his reckless behavior jeopardizes the history of this once-great family.
His smart and educated half-brother, al-Ma'mun, observes with anxiety as the House of Abbas declines under the irresponsible new Caliph. Their once-close sibling tie may soon fray, jeopardizing Harun al-Rashid's long legacy and jeopardizing the unity of a once-magnificent kingdom from within. 'House of Abbas' is a pentameter poetry drama that boldly portrays the essence of a true Shakespearean tragedy.
