Summer Reading: Cool New Muslim Fiction Novel

Wael Abdelgawad | Zawaj.com

As-salamu alaykum. Do you enjoy reading fiction? Looking for some good summer reading? Check out my new novelĀ Pieces of a Dream. It’s available in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

This is “Muslim fiction” taken in a new direction, featuring an Iraq war vet and San Francisco cab driver named Louis, and his journey to the Islamic faith. It’s a difficult path, compounded by his mother’s rejection, even as he tries to help his gambling-addicted father, and falls in love with an African-American Muslim woman named Khadija.

If you’ve already read the short story on MuslimMatters.org, this is much more complete, with new chapters detailing Louis’s interactions with his sister, his parents, and an old enemy from the Iraq war.

Buy a copy now, and please remember to review it on Amazon or Goodreads when you’re done!
