Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton (Proof) - "Tell me that and we'll go. Right now. Save ourselves and leave this place to burn. Tell me that's how you want your story to go and we'll write it straight across the sand."Dustwalk is an unforgiving, dead-end town. It's not the place to be poor or orphaned or female. And yet Amani Al'Hiza must call it 'home'.
Amani wants to escape and see the world she's heard about in campfire stories.
Then a foreigner with no name turns up, and with him she has the chance to run.
But the desert plains are full of dangerous magic. The Sultan's army is on the rise and Amani is soon caught at the heart of a fearless rebellion...
An epic story of swirling desert sands, love, magic and revolution. From Goodreads.
ETA: Since reading this it has been pointed out to me that Rebel of the Sands is problematic due to cultural appropriation, stereotypes of Middle Eastern people, and misrepresenting the Islamic faith. Because of this - although I haven't changed my review for the purposes of transparency - I can no longer recommend this book in any way.
