The Orphan of Samarkand by Jack Railly Herndon
In the vibrant, bustling city of Samarkand, young orphan Jalal al-Din survives by his wits, stealing what he can to fill his empty stomach. His life takes a dramatic turn when a mysterious merchant, Haji, recognizes his potential and offers him a path to a brighter future. Jalal reluctantly agrees to become Haji's apprentice, stepping into a world far beyond anything he imagined—one filled with trade, diplomacy, and ancient magic.
As they traverse the legendary Silk Road, Jalal learns the intricacies of commerce and the subtle art of persuasion. But he also discovers that the Silk Road is no ordinary trade network; it is a living, breathing entity powered by ancient magic. When Haji is kidnapped by the ruthless Red Silk Guild—a faction bent on controlling the road's magic—Jalal must navigate a treacherous web of alliances and rivalries to rescue his mentor and protect the delicate balance of the Silk Road.
Jalal's journey takes him to the glittering city of Xi'an, where he encounters the enigmatic Empress and gains her guarded support. He also crosses paths with Lady Wei, the shrewd leader of the rival Blue Lotus Guild, and faces tests of loyalty, wit, and courage. Along the way, Jalal uncovers secrets about his own destiny and the mystical map entrusted to him—a key to the magic of the Silk Road itself.
Blending historical intrigue with elements of fantasy, The Orphan of Samarkand is a tale of adventure, resilience, and self-discovery. Jalal's path is fraught with danger, but with the help of unlikely allies and his growing mastery of the road's arcane forces, he begins to realize his role in a prophecy that could alter the fate of the Silk Road forever.
