Brigitte Findalky [shares] memories of her middle class childhood [in Iraq] touching on cultural practices, the education system, Saddam Hussein's state control, and her family's history as Orthodox Christians in the arab world ... Signs of an oppressive regime permeate a seemingly normal life: magazines arrive edited by customs; the color red is banned after the execution of General Kassim; Baathist militiamen are publicly hanged and school kids are bussed past them to bear witness.

The family eventually feels compelled to move to Paris, however, where Brigitte finds herself not quite belonging to either culture."--Provided by publisher.

That was only compounded by the constant visit of spirits that only he, Ralph, could see. Cut to today, his village is threatened by a vicious Horde, an apocalyptic flood may take the life of Ralph's only supporter, his father, and the Wise Men's Counsel are out for Ralph's hide after rumors he had his way with one of their daughters. Ultimately Ralph must leave the village and unlock the secrets of his childhood as he journeys to the Kingdom of Astolia, but not before he takes a young ward, Raoul, who bears an uncanny similarity to Ralph"--Amazon.
