Before she was the legendary Persian queen who spun a thousand
tales, Shaherazade was a girl who saw something she shouldn't have.
She told the king. She thought she was doing what was right. She
couldn't have imagined what was to come. The Seljuk Empire is on
fire and the king is on a rampage after learning of his wife's
infidelity. Unsated by her execution, he has gone on to wed and
behead a new wife night after night. Fear spreads through the city
and Shaherazade must do something, anything, to halt the horror she
has set in motion. When the king starts searching for his next
bride, Shaherazade steps forward. As the sun sets on her wedding
night, she begins to weave a tale that will go down in history.
Every Rising Sun is a spellbinding reimagining of the Arabian
Nights and the fearless woman at the heart of it all: Shaherazade.
