The Frozen Crown
Greta Kelly
@sarahmughal769 Hmmm, I don't actually know, but you might like Greta Kelly's The Frozen Crown. My series has a partly Central Asian setting, but no Turkish characters. Jason Goodwin's The Janissary Tree? Crime not fantasy though. My Name is Red by Orhan Pamuk has fantasy elements.

The Great Theft: Wrestling Islam from the Extremists
Khaled M. Abou El Fadl
@robin_stevenson You might like a book called The Great Theft: Wrestling Islam Back From the Extremists, by Khaled Abou El Fadl. I've done a lot of deconditioning of the Islam I grew up with by reading his books, which was the greatest gift. ❤️
