Sample Scene

The City of Scholars

Timbuktu sat at the edge of the Sahara like a mirage made solid. Its mosques were built from mud and wood and towered over the streets. Its markets traded in salt and gold. But the most precious things in Timbuktu were neither of those. They were books. Hundreds of thousands of manuscripts, stored in private libraries behind every door, filled with mathematics, medicine, poetry, astronomy, and law — the collected wisdom of centuries.
