Carl Webb	Jun 11 2008 4:37 AM Meet the Author Melody Moezzi author of War on Error: Real Stories of American Muslims at 7:00 p.m. Monday, June 23, 2008 at the Faulk Central Library, 800 Guadalupe St., on the 2nd Floor. In her book Moezzi brings together the stories of twelve young people, all vastly different but all American, and all Muslim to explore a rarely seen side of Islam. War on Error: Real Stories of American Muslims reveals a more personal, less sensational, and most importantly, more realistic portrait of the faith and its practitioners.For more information call 974-7400 or visit http://www. cityofaustin. org/library http://www. myspace. com/melodymoezzi
