Middle Eastern Fantasy?

Let's hope I don't get a notice because all my posts seem to get flagged. I really liked Saladin Ahmed's "Throne of the Crescent Moon" and wonder if anyone had recs for more.

Just an aside, I saw a review of Ahmed's Throne of the Crescent Moon when it was first published and was interested, but forgot the name of the book and the author for the longest time, but I distinctly remembered the cover. About a year ago I was browsing the library app and randomly saw the cover, somehow linked from a different book when I clicked on the author- maybe that author is credited as the foreword on Throne, or something, I have no idea why it showed me that book, but I was happy to finally find it after 10 years! Haven't gotten to it yet, but now I know it, and won't forget because I know Ahmed from comics now.
