Mike Carey and Louise Carey Guest Blog and Contest 3/14 – RSVP Here!

Posted by Site Hostess Sunday March 11, 2012

The Steel SeraglioAttention readers: due to unforeseen technical difficulties, this event will be re-scheduled for another date. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Join us on 3/14 with authors Mike Carey and Louise Carey for a Guest Blog, chat and contest. This event post goes up at noon Central and runs into the evening. They will start answering questions around 12:00 pm Central Daylight Time. For those visiting from outside of the US, here is the time conversion link. We are in the Chicago time zone: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/

They will be talking about their book The Steel Seraglio

“The sultan Bokhari Al-Bokhari of Bessa has 365 concubines – until a violent coup puts the city in the hands of the religious zealot Hakkim Mehdad. Hakkim has no use for the pleasures of the flesh: he condemns the women first to exile – and then to death! Cast into the desert, the concubines must rely on themselves and each other to escape from the new sultan’s fanatical pursuit. But their goals go beyond mere survival: with the aid of the champions who emerge from among them, they intend to topple the usurper and retake Bessa from the repressive power that now controls it. The assassin, Zuleika, whose hands are weapons. The seer, Rem, whose tears are ink. The wise Gursoon, who was the dead sultan’s canniest advisor. The camel-thief, Anwar Das, who offers his lying tongue to the concubines’ cause. Together, they must forge the women of the harem into an army, a seraglio of steel, and use it to conquer a city. But even if they succeed, their troubles will just be beginning – because their most dangerous enemy is within their own number…”
