This edition is based on the 1913 publication but has been adapted to the new German spelling to improve readability while preserving the originality of Karl May's work. With the support of Kara Ben Nemsi and his travel companions Halef Omar, David Lindsay, and Mohammed Emin, the Yezidis defeat the Turks. During their journey, Kara receives a dog named Dojan as a guest gift in a Kurdish village. In Amediye, the Turkish fortress where Amad el Ghandur is imprisoned, they manage to rescue him and flee north to Kurdistan with him. There, they encounter several adventures with hostile Kurds and Nestorians. With the help of the mysterious Marah Durimeh, they establish peace between the warring tribes. Marah Durimeh gifts Kara an amulet that is meant to protect him and later proves to be of great value.
