Princess Sultana's Circle

The extraordinary story of Princess Sultana continues with "Princess Sultana's Circle." The forced marriage of Sultana's niece to a cruel and depraved older man, and Sultana's discovery of the harem of sex slaves kept by a royal cousin, have made this brave royal princess more determined than ever to fight the oppression of women in Saudi Arabia. The princess's cause is given an extra sense of urgency against the backdrop of increased dissent against the Al Sa'uds and the looming spectre of Islamic fundamentalism.

However, an extended family camping trip in the desert brings the luxury-loving Sultana and her relatives closer to their nomadic roots, and gives her the strength to carry on the fight for women's rights in all Muslim countries. This book paints a horrifying reality for the women of the desert kingdom, offering a haunting look at the danger of Saudi male dominance and the desperate lives of the women they rule.
