Heba Hamzeh is a mother to three extraordinary children who inspired her vocation as an author. One evening, Heba finished reading her son a bedtime book, and he asked for another story. At that moment, Heba decided to weave a tale about a boy named Prince Zaaki. The following night, her son asked for another Prince Zaaki adventure, and so the Kingdom of Luella began to grow. Forthwith, Prince Zaaki bedtime stories became a ritual -- a nightly occurrence -- as her son would sit in bed, enraptured, as Heba described a magical world full of mystical characters and mysterious places and memorable battles.

Heba is well known for creating and writing Prince Zaaki and The Royal Sword of Luella, which received much critical acclaim. Prince Zaaki and The Momentous Battle of The Kingdoms is the second book in the Prince Zaaki series, where new places and new characters are introduced and explored. Heba has enjoyed evolving the main characters from the first book and developing the storyline. During her time spent writing this book, Heba has already planned and set about writing the third book in the Prince Zaaki series.
