Qama and the Scimitar — M.I. Quandour

This is the story of a young Circassian boy abducted into slavery on the Black Sea cost of Circassia during the early years of the Thirteenth Century to be sold into a Bahri warriors compound in Syria. What follows is a heart-wrenching adventure drama of the trials and tribulations of the young Circassian. It is the story of Baibars, the great Bahri general who became the first Circassian Sultan, uniting Egypt and Syria and spreading the power of the Egyptian Sultante into the Mediterranean and beyond.
