LOL: The Sons of the Sheik


The Sons of the Sheik is the sequel to, obviously, The Sheik! Barbara Cartland condensed this book by E. M. Hull in December 1977. Diana and her desert lover had twin sons: one was raised in the desert and the other raised in Scotland. See what happens when 2 cultures collide!

Francis Marshall illustrates the 2 sons of the sheik with the girl that one, or maybe both, are in love! This is a cover of contrasts; we see the difference in clothing as a difference in culture. FM is his best when it comes to clothing and facial features. Again, I wish Bantam had placed the title elsewhere since it detracts from the cover art.
