Book one of the Fallujah Burning Seires.
Two young Iraqis leave Fallujah on the eve of the devastating siege of their city. They learn that, no matter how far they try to run from the war, it’s always close behind.
Book two of the Fallujah Burning Series is titled The Last Book of Baghdad, out in June 2016.
"Falcons on the Floor is the rare novel about war that re-humanizes everyone involved. Through excellent writing and a deep understanding of what occupation does, to civilians and soldiers alike, Sirois and Alshujairy take the reader on a deeply personal journey where we are shown how and why war should be avoided at all cost."
Dahr Jamail, independent journalist and author of Beyond the Green Zone

"The battle of Fallujah seen on the ground by Iraqis. Two young men slip out of the city under siege to walk through desert patrolled by Coalition commandos to Ramadi. Two young men with conflicting appraisals of the situation, and with the loyalties and lusts of youth and hopeless hopes. The writing of this complex novel makes it a lyrical and sensuous poem – an astonishing and mesmerizing book."
