Interpretation Conducive To Books The Salt Road

The desert lay before them, and the secrets of the amulet . . . From Tafraout’s magnificent mountainside, Isobel absorbs the heat and romance of the Moroccan vista before her, with mosque and homes scattered far below. But a mere slip sees her tumbling uncontrollably into the arms of handsome rescuer Taïb, who notices her unusual silver amulet, and that her fall has revealed a tiny scroll hidden within. Entranced by the possibilities of its intricate and illegible script, they set out for the Sahara in search of a Tuareg elder to unlock the riddles of its past. Little does Izzy realize that the desert holds the key to more mysteries than the amulet’s. From beneath the beating sun emerges nomadic Princess Mariata, whose stories of tortured love bind her to the precious talisman in Izzy’s hands. She’s battled the sands; she’s found and lost love among its dunes. And where the amulet crosses both their paths, answers to the deepest secrets lie.

I still remember that moment a few weeks back, my train approaching London Kings Cross Station, me closing the book around a hundred pages in and exiting the train carriage onto the platform. That was the moment, when out of nowhere a short dialogue from J.R.R. Tolkiens Lord of the Rings occurred to me, Frodo Baggins asking Sam Gamgee after his first encounter with the elves:Do you like them still, now you have had a closer view?They seem a bit above my likes and dislikes, so to speak, answered

A beautiful and poignant novel, brilliantly written to capture the readers hearts. I absolutely loved it.I would classify The Salt Road as historical fiction, adventure, with the right amount of romance. I loved following adventurous but walled off Izzy through her discovery of the puzzle her dad left her in his will. I am an avid traveller, and reading about her adventures in Morocco makes me want to book a plane ticket and rush over immediately. I was angry at Miles for not taking care of her

I really enjoyed this book about the people of desert. It starts out with Izzy as a little girl who is rambucious and lively. Than becomes an accountant. What happened to her to change her from the little girl to the woman she became. Her father leaves a secret box in his will for her in the attic. The choice is her's to open it or not. She does open it and finds an amulet with some history to it and decided to go to Morroco to do some rock climbing. Which becomes an adventure for her. It is
