In this collection of Middle Eastern tales, Scheherazade tells stories night after night to hold the attention of a king who has made her life depend on his interest. Each tale pauses before its conclusion, giving her a reason to continue the next evening.

Framed by Scheherazade’s effort to survive through storytelling, the volume brings together adventures and wonders from the world of The Arabian Nights. Its episodic form moves from one tale to another, making it suited to listeners who enjoy folklore and stories that unfold in installments.

This is the third of four volumes in the audiobook edition. The supplied information does not identify the individual tales included in this volume.
