"The Oracle of Stamboul"

"The Oracle of Stamboul" is Michael David Lukas' debut novel and reads like historical fiction. Eleonora Cohen is a young girl who is a gifted prodigy and she changes the lives of all those around her including an eccentric Sultan who she charms and thus changes the course of an empire.

I thoroughly enjoyed this well-written novel - losing myself in the story in the day that it took me to read it. I hope to see more novels by Lukas.
