An Instant New York Times Bestseller
The only daughter of the kingdom of Kekaya, Kaikeyi is raised on tales of the gods. Yet she watches as her father banishes her mother, listens as her own worth is reduced to how great a marriage alliance she can secure. She turns to the texts she once read with her mother and discovers a magic that is hers alone. With this power, Kaikeyi transforms herself into a warrior, diplomat, and queen, determined to carve a better world for herself and the women around her. But the path she has forged clashes with the destiny the gods have chosen for her. Kaikeyi must decide if resistance is worth the destruction it will wreak - and what legacy she intends to leave behind.
