The Roc and the Cursed Child: An Illustrated Story in Poetry based closely on the Shahnameh of Ferdowsi (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798304585941)

The Roc and the Cursed Child
In the grand epic of the "Shahnameh," written by the
Iranian poet Ferdowsi in the 10th century CE, the tale of
Dastaan (later known as Zaal) stands out as a story of
destiny and courage.
Born with strange physical features, Dastaan is abandoned in
the wilderness by his father, the mighty warrior Saam,
who believes his son is cursed.
Dastaan's fate takes a miraculous turn when the legendary
Roc (Simurgh) discovers him.

This story marks the beginning of a series of
adventures that would shape his destiny and the future
of legendary Iran. Dastaan's story is a testament to the
themes of love, bravery, and the bond between humans and
mythical creatures that run throughout the Shahnameh.
