Summary
In the spring, Mu'mina watched from the rocks to see which pass would first break free of the yoke of winter. There had been a time when she'd waited alone.
She had gained brothers since then. They had not been born to her mother. They were not her father's sons. But they were her brothers.
Wanderers. Worshipers. Lovers of Leaving.

Summary
27 snapshots of sepia faded conversation. "27 Articles" in conversation with "of Arabia": Ali, Daud, Majid, Farraj, Auda, and the whirlwind (half seen). Basically follows the plot of the movie from the POV of 5 of the Arab characters. My key thoughts being how conversation is about oneself as much as the one talked about. Well and fire & water and how to have each section converse with both the next one and the italicized text, which is taken from Lawrence's "27 Articles"

Summary
An epic adventure from the point of view of a giraffe. This leaves the story with bit of an identity crisis. Not that Lelu, the giraffe, thinks that she's a woobie. She thinks she's tough. Black eyeliner. Pierced horn. Jack Skellington head backpack and spit in your eyes. Well, except she's not a camel. Not. But attitude. Lots of attitude. Except where she's a big softie on a quest. For a Maguf-fin. With five other giraffes, who keep licking the Malaekah who they met standing by the side of the freeway. There's also Umar, a Jann djinn, and Danya, also a Jann and his cousin, and some disagreement over who is cooler. Well, mostly from Umar. Danya hasn't noticed that there is any question. Plus, there's an epic quest. And some small ridiculousness. No kittens or puppies were harmed.
