We Hunt the Flame is Faizal’s debut novel and the first book in the Sands of Arawiya series. The book follows Zafira the Hunter, a woman who disguises herself as man to traverse the cursed forest of the Arz in hopes of feeding her people. The book also tells of the Prince of Death, Nasir, who does the dirty work of his autocratic father. If Zafira was discovered to be a girl, all that she’s done will go away but Nasir is not allowed to show any compassion. The two will meet up as they are both on a quest to uncover a lost artifact that could restore magic to the world. They both wish to find the artifact, but Nasir has another mission as well: to kill the Hunter.

The next book in the series is called We Free the Stars which will take place following the events of We Hunt the Flame. The book sees the characters really thrown out of their element after the events of the first book and the new reality that they now exist in.
