Arabian Nights Lost: Celestial Verses I Overviews

Arabian Nights Lost: Celestial Verses I is the first part of an epic romantic adventure fantasy trilogy set in the golden age of the classical Arabian tales. Richly researched and deeply seeped in Arabian and Sassanian mythology, folklore and tradition it is culturally and historically authentic and exceedingly reverent to Islam. At its heart is the story of forbidden love between Yusuf, a Roman galley slave, and Jamila, a jinni and Princess of the Sea from the mysterious Isle of Pearl. A conjuring Grand Vizier, Bahram, demands the princess in marriage for his landed king, Zahhak, and their fabulous adventures just begin.

Customer Review

This memorable love story is written with so much feeling that you immediately become a part of it. And we can thank the "literary lord of the west coast", Joseph Covino Jr,. for bringing this novel, "Arabian Nights Lost - Celestial Verses I" to our coffee tables and night stands. With his exceptional visual imagery and style of words, Joseph once again proves his literary gift for unparalleled imagination and pure escapism. "Arabian Nights" centers on the touching love affair between a Roman galley slave (Yusuf) and a young princess (Jamila). Along the way, we're also treated to other memorable characters such as King Freton, King Zahhak, and Bahram, all of whom add to the cohesiveness and completeness of the story. Unlike other tales of this period, here the author's writing style easily takes readers back in time and makes them feel they're a witness to a romantic adventure and the unforgotten Arabian nights. You feel as if you're there, you feel for many of the characters, and you feel (and realize) that this is definitely much more than a simple tale. Descriptive passages such as: "Brilliant beams of scintillate lapis lazuli light abruptly shot and suffused their way throughout the water as bubbles percolated boisterously upward" is just one example of how the words hook the reader's enthusiasm and attention. It's certainly an easy read, and it's certainly very easy to get involved with the story, its characters, and that period from long ago. Where are you City Blue 2? And sat.
