Rick Riordan Presents: A Touch of Blood - Sajni Patel

Descriere

Read the Persephone myth like never before in this companion to A Drop of Venom by Sajni Patel, where Greek mythology meets Indian lore. nGods are made, not born. n nBefore Manisha, the youngest of three sisters, was sent to hide on the floating mountain, her eldest sister, Eshani, made a deal with the shades. In order to save her people in the midst of a tragic war, she exchanged her life for theirs. Now, years later, the shades claim their due, dragging Eshani into the Nightmare Realm where she must find the Gatekeeper to fulfill her end of the bargain. n nNothing is as it seems in a land filled with ravenous monsters, ghoulish residents, and a river full of the dead. But most terrifying of all is the Shadow King, who intends to use Eshani to obtain immortality. As it turns out, Eshani--nicknamed little goddess of spring--is the key to fulfilling the Nightmare Realm's prophecy. There's only one person who can help Eshani escape, and he has his own problems. n nHiran has spent most of his life hiding, but destiny beckons, and he can no longer resist the call of the realm. But how can a stowaway, long thought to be dead, save an entire world? n nNothing will stop the Nightmare Realm from getting what it wants. Except maybe a king in the making and a goddess rising. n nEndorsed by Rick Riordan, author of the Disney+ hit series Percy Jackson and the Olympians.n
