"An intriguing, fun story — Umm Salihah, happymuslimah.com"My kids were up and alert listening to this action-packed tale. My boys were truly captivated with Haris’s heroic feats and were holding their breath till the very end. I used this book for our bookclub audience because it tends to truly entrance the listeners. For me I was yet again holding back tears with the words of this spell-binding author. This book (which is personally my fave in the series by Fawzia Gilani) will certainly give you goosebumps. The book builds faith into its readers without being plainly repetitive or preachy. My children did mention that the characters illustrations varied from page to page at times and I do feel they could have been better. I still gave this book a 5/5 because they were numerous plus points and my kids still wanted it read to them all over again."
