The Rose of the Prophet series is set in a fictional desert world of heavy Arabian influence, ruled by a spate of twenty gods, each a facet of the central god, Sul. In the normal course of events, common to fantasy literature, the values of the gods balance each other out; however, as the series begins, the gods have turned away from the Sul and the world is in peril of falling apart.
On the worldly realm, this is reflected as the wandering god, Akhran, commands two of his nomadic tribes to unite by the marriage of the children of the Sheiks. This is unfortunate, as the two tribes have been warring with each other for as long as memory; the bride must be tied up and gagged for the wedding, and the wedding night notably involves the bride stabbing her would-be husband.
Nonetheless, the people must unite to defeat more sinister forces.
In a somewhat controversial move for the authors, they imply a homosexual relationship between two of the characters in the second "book" of the first novel, "The Will of the Wanderer."
The titles of all three books in the series are:
1. The Will of the Wanderer
2. The Paladin of the Night
3. The Prophet of Akhran |
