Over the years I have noticed that the things which starts roughly for me ends quite finely. The same thing occurred when I read the book Rebel of the Sands. At the beginning of this book I found it quite unreal. But slowly I started liking the lively and interesting character of Amani Al'Hiza. I loved her confidence and intelligence. Even though the story was a little prolonged at first I liked it in the end. After reading the last chapter I asked the little part of my mind if I would like to read the sequel of this book, and it said yes. I would give this book a 3/5.
