Description

If you thought Rebels of the Kasbah and Wrath of the Caid were exciting, Legends of the Rif will leave your palms sweating and your heart racing. Tariq lies trapped with Melbourne Jack while determined Aseem and Fez search for the whereabouts of the missing Malik and Sanaa. Brave Margaret prepares for a heroic prison break with friends in Marseilles. And, finally, the secrets of the Red Hand are revealed through the mysterious exploits of Foster Crowe in the ancient city of Kathmandu. As the winds of war sweep across Morocco, the infamous Caid prepares to declare himself as supreme dictator. Morocco's only hope is our treasured ragtag group of resistance fighters from Rebels of the Kasbah, who are scattered all across the desert and mountains. They must unite and save their people and their country. "Don't wish for an easy life. Wish for a difficult life, and the strength to endure it." Legends of the Rif is the third book of the Red Hand Adventures. The books are meant to be read in chronological order. We suggest first reading Rebels of the Kasbah and then Wrath of the Caid prior to Legends of the Rif.

Reviews

O'Neill has an eye for detail, atmosphere, and action...this is a rousing period piece that ends on a cliffhanger. - Publishers Weekly

Debut author O'Neill incorporates a great deal of cultural and historical context in his story...and will make the readers feel as though they have traveled back in time and fallen into that world. An exciting, exotic tale.... The cliffhanger ending all but demands that readers jump to the next installment of the series." - Kirkus Reviews

Author Bio

Joe O'Neill is the CEO and founder of Waquis Global Services, which gives him the opportunity to travel the world and explore different cultures. He was inspired to write the Red Hand Adventures while on safari in Sri Lanka. As he was driving along in an old jeep, under the full moon casting silhouettes of wild elephants against the jungle wall, the image of a rebel orphan in old Morocco popped into his head. While he wishes he could take credit for the idea, it was a story that was already out there, waiting to be told. He currently lives in Hood River, OR, with his wife, daughter, four cats, and one dog.
