"Alamut wasn't just a fortress; it was a hell that fed the darkest desires of the human soul."
Fedayeen drugged with hashish... Young people who believe in a false paradise with the laughter of houris... A sect that disdains death and brings empires to their knees through assassination.
But every perversion meets patience, and every laughter meets a scream. When
the Seljuk commander Aytuğ learns that his sister Elif is held captive behind the dark walls of the castle, this war becomes not just a war of state, but of blood ties.
And one night, seven warriors emerge from the shadows of history. These young men, sworn to protect the Hun rulers, are like one breath, one life, one oath. With their steps, the stones of Alamut tremble with blood, the houris' chains are broken, and the warriors are plunged into terror.
But the bloodiest night in history will end with a single dagger...
In the middle of the desert, in an oasis. In the last sip of a bowl of water.
This novel is an epic where history and legend, heresy and loyalty, and blood and oath collide.
It offers the reader not just a story, but the courage to look into the dark mirror of the soul.
