Persia Blues, Volume 2

With insight into a culture in turmoil, this book bridges Western civilization with that of modern-day Iran and ancient Persia
 
Minoo Shirazi’s mysterious double life continues to unfold across 2,000 years of history in the second installment in the Persia Blues series. In the fantastical world of ancient Persia, the shock Minoo receives at discovering her royal heritage is overshadowed by the imminent invasion of Ahriman’s armies. Only by finding the empire's champion, Rostam, can Minoo hope to turn back the tide of evil. Meanwhile, in the modern world, Minoo’s life in Iran and America—where she has recently begun her graduate studies—she deals with her stern father, dying mother, lost brother, and new American boyfriend. Across ancient myths and modern realities, this volume blends Eastern and Western civilization with elements of Persian lore.
