by Anonymous
Illustrated by Richard Westall
"The Arabian Nights, Volume 3 (of 4)" by Anonymous is a collection of Middle Eastern folktales compiled during the Islamic Golden Age. This volume continues the frame story of Scheherazade, who saves her life by telling her husband, King Shahryar, captivating tales each night. The stories range from historical accounts to fantastical adventures featuring jinn, sorcerers, and legendary places. Some tales explore science fiction elements, including underwater civilizations and cosmic journeys. Each narrative ends at a cliffhanger, compelling the king to spare Scheherazade another day to hear the conclusion.
