If you’ve picked up this volume, you may already be familiar with Achmed Abdullah's work from the first volume, "The Achmed Abdullah Megapack." If not, no harm done; both Megapacks contain short stories which can be read in any order. The real difference is that Volume 1 contains quite a few supernatural stories, and this volume focuses more on contemporary life in exotic locales, like the Middle East, China, and New York City (primarily Chinatown). Crime is frequently touched upon; many also qualify as mysteries.
