Publisher Description
Seventy-one days and seventy-one nights had come and gone since Khalid began killing his brides. This dawn, Khalid would mark the loss of the seventy-second girl, Shahrzad al-Khayzuran. Khalid didn’t know how many more of these dawns he could take. And there was something about this latest girl that piqued his interest. Not only had she volunteered to marry him, but at their wedding ceremony, she had seemed not the least bit afraid. In fact, what he had seen in her eyes was nothing short of pure hatred. She was about to lose her life. Why wasn’t she afraid? Why did she hate him so? He had never before gone to his wife’s chambers before her death at dawn. Tonight would be different.

Disappointed
I LOVED the wrath and the dawn and when I heard there were going to be novellas I was super exited. However, I know this is free but I thought a novella should add insight to characters of the book, it was very short and I wasn't that intrigued. I wish we saw Kalid's point of view of a different scene such as the souk or the confession or even a new moment, like when he finds out *spoiler* Shazi is gone.
The moth and the flame is already appearing better simply because of length.
