It didn't look dangerous, exactly. When twelve-year-old Farah first laid eyes on the old-fashioned board game, she thought it looked...elegant. It is made of wood, etched with exquisite images--a palace with domes and turrets, lattice-work windows that cast eerie shadows, a large spider--and at the very center of its cover, in broad letters, is written: The Gauntlet of Blood and Sand. The Gauntlet is more than a game, though. It is the most ancient, the most dangerous kind of magic. It holds worlds inside worlds. And it takes players as prisoners.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salaam Reads \/ Simon \u0026 Schuster Books for You","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45134775058583,"sku":"9781481486972","price":668.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781481486972.webp?v=1767103554","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-gauntlet-9781481486972","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
