Set in the 12th century, during the decline of the Seljuk Empire and the height of the Islamic Golden Age, The White Falcon is a historical novel that blends political intrigue and adventure with philosophical depth, exploring themes of betrayal, spiritual struggle, and moral conflict. It follows Shaheen Sahbaz, a family man caught between duty, doubt, and the life he once knew. When a mysterious turning point shakes a secret order, the burden of leadership begins to fall on Shaheen, setting him onto a path that will test not only his courage but everything he believes. Drawn into suspicion, loss, and struggle, he finds himself at the center of a conflict that deepens into a philosophical, religious, and deeply personal journey through faith, sacrifice, and the search for truth-one in which the true battle is not only against enemies outside, but against those he once trusted most. In a time when the Muslim world prospers in knowledge, philosophy, science, and art, Persia faces corruption, hidden enemies, and the threat of war, while the Nizari Ismailis-known to history as the Assassins of Alamut-lurk in the shadows. Built on careful historical research, it offers an authentic and detailed portrayal of the period, inspired by real historical events. Rich in atmosphere and historical depth, the story features historical figures such as Saladin, King Baldwin III of Jerusalem, the Byzantine emperor Manuel Komnenos, and the Seljuk sultans, while also reflecting the philosophical and spiritual legacy of Avicenna, Al-Khwarizmi, Omar Khayyam, Ferdowsi, and Hassan-i Sabbah. From the great Persian cities of Isfahan and Hamadan to Jerusalem, Constantinople, and Antioch, the story unfolds across a world shaped by political unrest, religious tension, and cultural greatness. Poetry inspired by Rumi also appears throughout the novel, making The White Falcon far more than a historical adventure-it is a story of faith, doubt, sacrifice, and the inner battles that shape a man's soul. The White Falcon was awarded Best First Book at a debut novel literary competition.
