Histoire
Crispin is a mosaicist, a layer of bright tiles. Still grieving for the family he lost to the plaque, he lives only for his arcane craft. But an imperial summons from Valerius the Trakesian to Sarantium, the most magnificent place in the world, is difficult to resist. In a world half-wild and tangled with magic, a journey to Sarantium means a walk into destiny. Bearing with him a deadly secret and a Queen's seductive promise, guarded only by his own wits and a talisman from an alchemist's treasury, Crispin sets out for the fabled city. Along the way he will encounter a great beast.

Histoire
Marcus' hero days are behind him. He knows too well that even the smallest war still means somebody's death. When his men are impressed into a doomed army, staying out of a battle he wants no part of requires some unorthodox steps. Cithrin is an orphan, ward of a banking house. Her job is to smuggle a nation's wealth across a war zone, hiding the gold from both sides. She knows the secret life of commerce like a second language, but the strategies of trade will not defend her from swords. Geder, sole scion of a noble house, has more interest in philosophy than in swordplay.

Description
The ruling Asharites of Al-Rassan have come from the desert sands, but over centuries, seduced by the sensuous pleasures of their new land, their stern piety has eroded. The Asharite empire has splintered into decadent city-states led by warring petty kings. King Almalik of Cartada is on the ascendancy, aided always by his friend and advisor, the notorious Ammar ibn Khairan - poet, diplomat, soldier - until a summer afternoon of savage brutality changes their relationship forever.
Meanwhile, in the north, the conquered Jaddites' most celebrated - and feared - military leader, Rodrigo Belmonte, driven into exile, leads his mercenary company south.
In the dangerous lands of Al-Rassan, these two men from different worlds meet and serve - for a time - the same master. Sharing their interwoven fate - and increasingly torn by her feelings - is Jehane, the accomplished court physician, whose own skills play an increasing role as Al-Rassan is swept to the brink of holy war, and beyond.
Hauntingly evocative of medieval Spain, The Lions of Al-Rassan is both a brilliant adventure and a deeply compelling story of love, divided loyalties, and what happens to men and women when hardening beliefs begin to remake - or destroy - a world.

Spectacular
Guy Gavriel Kay is a Master of imagery and the written word. An excellent journey.
Euan Morton is by far the best narrator. He does not merely read but draws you in with his expressiveness and energy.

A sweeping epic fantasy inspired by medieval Spain
This is a grand, sweeping epic set on a fantasy world with two moons, though clearly strongly inspired by medieval Spain and the religious conflicts of those times. The plot centers around the conflicts between the three main religions of Ashar (worshipers of the Stars), Jad (worshipers of the Sun) and Kindath (worshipers of the Two Moons). The Kindath are the more oppressed of the three (rather strongly aligned with Jews) while the other two seem to represent a conflict similar to Christianity vs Islam. As the Kindath physician Jehane meets Ammar ibn Khairan, Ashar warrior and poet, and Ser Rodrigo Belmonte, renowned Jad captain, they develop a deep friendship and fight together as a mercenary force while in exile. Once their exile ends, however, they are forced into opposing sides of a great religious war. The "lions of Al-Rassan" refers to the once-powerful Asharite emperors of the lands of Al-Rassan, but that empire is now splintered and fallen and the lands of Al-Rassan are now contested by the Jaddites. I believe however that the "Lions of Al-Rassan" in the title also comes to apply to the two opposing warriors, Ammar and Rodrigo, who come face to face in battle towards the end to decide the fate of Al-Rassan for the future. If you enjoy grand-scale, sweeping political and military stories you will likely enjoy this a lot. I had read it long ago, and enjoyed refreshing my memory with the Audiobook version, however I did find that sometimes the different foreign names are a bit confusing in the Audiobook without being able to see the different spellings in print. #Audible1
