Imani Karunzika is fiercely independent and refuses to be forced into a loveless marriage with the domineering man her parents want for her. When her friend Crown Prince Wasim al-Hassan of Barrakesch learns he’ll be passed over for the throne because he has no wife, she suggests a plan where they enter into a fake engagement. He can then secure his birthright, and she can get her parents off her back. But the marriage must proceed as planned. Wasim becomes the king; she becomes the queen and is now under the rule of a man whose power and authority is unmatched.

Quick and Lean Listen
Revisado: 10-13-24
Queen of Barrakesh is a quick listen brimming with potential. The bones of a fantastic story are there; there's just no meat.
The main characters and their relationship felt a little loose and not fully formed. Plot points that could have been used to show us who Wasim and Amani were and the love they professed went utilized. Conflict and tension cropped up with little to no foreshadowing / foundation laying only to be quickly resolved. And the exposition to in-scene storytelling ratio leaned a little too heavily in favor of exposition.
I've read some of Delaney Diamond's longer works and really enjoyed them. I think that would have been the case for this one if it had been given the full-length novel treatment.
