Books II-V all allow us to view another aspect of Eteraz
In Book II, Eteraz has emigrated with his family to the US and struggles against binds of his Islamic faith while his mother clings more tightly to a stricter version of it than she did in Pakistan. Eteraz changes his name from Abir to Amir and finds himself becoming more and more in the westernized.
Book III follows Amir to college and into a dorm with a strict Muslim follower: no touching girls, no looking at girls and man many prayer sessions. His devotion is catching, and Amir becomes more and more devout himself.
In Book IV, Amir and his mother travel to Pakistan to visit family and to find a wife for Amir to avoid the fornication he's been feeling the urge to explore. In Pakistan, he is threatened by past friends because of his alleged allegiance to America and separation from Islam.
Book V opens with 9/11 and Ali, as he changes his name to, travels to the Middle East to start a Reformation.

The book was informative and interesting, but try as I might I just couldn't connect with a book. I struggled to finish it. Eteraz is a talented writer and his background is surely an interesting topic but ultimately this was not a page turner for me. I do look forward to the novel he is currently working on however.
