  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  In the bustling ports of the ancient East, Zayd ibn Musa is known for his unmatched skill and his paralyzing anxiety. His small dhow, Al-Barakah, is his last hope for survival against the oppressive monopoly of the great merchant Bahlul. Forced onto the treacherous Deep Route—a sea of uncharted shallows and violent squalls—Zayd’s preparations are stripped away, forcing him to confront his deepest fear: the loss of control. 
  From a miraculous escape from the Sea of Shallows to weathering a devastating squall, Zayd’s voyage becomes a sequence of physical and moral tests. His ultimate challenge is Layla, a young fugitive carrying explosive evidence against Bahlul, offering Zayd instant, but morally corrupted, wealth. 
  Listen to this epic journey of self-discovery where the power of human effort (Asbab) meets the serenity of divine reliance (Tawakkul). Discover what Zayd finds in the wreckage of his ship: a certainty (Yaqeen) that provision comes not from the ledger, but from the purity of the heart.

  The Twisted History of the GOP

  A two-time Pulitzer Prize–winning cartoonist shreds the GOP’s record of backward policies and abysmal leaders. Luckovich takes aim at the NRA, Trump, Bush, Ted Cruz, and more.
  		 
  The Twisted History of the GOP is an editorial cartoon exploration into the ongoing crack-up of the Republican party. Once a proud, competent counterbalance to the Democratic party, the GOP began to change in the ’90s with the arrival of Republican representative and future House Speaker Newt Gingrich to Congress, assisted by radical radio host Rush Limbaugh and a new television network, the right-wing, propaganda-spewing Fox News. In the years that followed, they were aided by Mitch McConnell and the George W. Bush and Trump administrations, in transforming the GOP into what it is now: a fascist, racist, anti-science, pro-conspiracy cult, in thrall to the twice-impeached conman and former president, Donald Trump.
  		 
  These cartoons will shock and delight you, and you won’t be able to look away from Luckovich’s witty editorial wisdom. Combining a rapier wit alongside exceptional caricatures, The Twisted History of the GOP will make you laugh until you cry.
