SUMMARY:Side Quest Book Club: "Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi"
DESCRIPTION:Somerville\, MA\n\n\n\nJoin Side Quest Books &amp\; Games for a
  discussion of Shannon Chakraborty's seafaring romp\, The Adventures of Am
 ina Al-Sirafi!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE BOOK\n\n"A thrilling\, transportativ
 e adventure that is everything promised—Chakraborty's storytelling is fa
 ntasy at its best." — R.F. Kuang\, #1 New York Times bestselling author 
 of Babel and The Poppy War\n\n"An exhilarating\, propulsive adventure\, st
 itched from the threads of real history\, Amina’s adventures are the rea
 son to read fantasy." — Ava Reid\, internationally bestselling author of
  Juniper &amp\; Thorn\n\nShannon Chakraborty\, the bestselling author of T
 he City of Brass\, spins a new trilogy of magic and mayhem on the high sea
 s in this compelling historical fantasy tale of pirates and sorcerers\, fo
 rbidden artifacts and ancient mysteries\, in one woman’s determined ques
 t to seize a final chance at glory—and write her own legend.\n\nAmina al
 -Sirafi should be content. After a storied and scandalous career as one of
  the Indian Ocean’s most notorious female pirates\, she’s survived bac
 kstabbing rogues\, vengeful merchant princes\, several husbands\, and one 
 actual demon to retire peacefully with her family to a life of piety\, mot
 herhood\, and absolutely nothing that hints of the supernatural.\n\nBut wh
 en she’s tracked down by the obscenely wealthy mother of a former crewma
 n\, she’s offered a job no bandit could refuse: retrieve her comrade’s
  kidnapped daughter for a kingly sum. The chance to have one last job and 
 a final adventure with her crew\, do right by an old friend\, and win a fo
 rtune that will secure her family’s future forever? It seems like such a
 n obvious choice that it must be God’s will.\n\n----------------\n\nABOU
