Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The land of Saagaradatthi is a strange and idyllic place. Hidden away like a jewel in the Indian Ocean, it was famed for being only an abode of snakes and sandalwood trees till humans came to inhabit it. The country followed a system of monarchy which allowed the women of the royal family to rule, but on a condition - no princess of the land could be viewed by the people till either her coronation or her marriage; whichever came first. Neither could the princess see the land or her people that she was to rule till the conditions were met. This tradition went on for centuries till the day Princess Kairavi ran away... For a group of people who were unfazed by no technology, tsunamis and snake poison, the princess running away was catastrophic. No one however, was more affected than Dhruva Kayath, a member of the Cabinet and a royal hopeful. His dreams of becoming the King of Saagaradatthi vanished with the princess. From plotting to change the constitution, to finding unlikely allies in a country opposed to change, Dhruva tried everything. But a sudden encounter with a beautiful commoner sets him on an adventure that alters not just his destiny but also the destiny of Saagaradatthi.

Book excerpt: In a land where Kings still rule, I am a Princess. You must know me only as Sultana, for I cannot reveal my true name for fear that harm will come to me and my family for what I am about to tell you. Think of a Saudi Arabian princess and what do you see? A woman glittering with jewels, living a life of unbelievable luxury. She has gold, palaces, swimming-pools, servants, designer dresses galore. But in reality she lives in a gilded cage. She has no freedom, no vote, no control over her own life, no value but as a bearer of sons. Hidden behind the veil, she is a prisoner, her jailers her father, her husband, her sons. 'Sultana' is a member of the Saudi royal family, closely related to the King. For the sake of her daughters, she decided that it was time for a woman in her position to speak out about the reality of life for women in her country, whatever their rank. She tells of her own life, from her turbulent childhood to her arranged marriage - a happy one, until her husband decided to take a second wife - and of the lives of her sisters, her friends and her servants. In contrast to the affection and easy camaraderie amongst the women, she relates a history of appalling oppression against them, everyday occurrences that in any other culture would be seen as shocking human rights violations: forced marriages, servants bullied into sex slavery, summary executions. Princess is a testimony to a woman of indomitable spirit and great courage. By speaking out, 'Sultana' risked bringing the wrath of the Saudi establishment upon her head and upon the heads of her children. For this reason, she told her story anonymously.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Sweet, charming and skillful . . . an enjoyable journey, a helluva ride.”—January magazine Ben Holiday, mere mortal turned monarch of the magic kingdom of Landover, has grappled with numerous contenders for his throne, but nothing could have prepared him for the most daunting of challengers: his headstrong teenage daughter, Mistaya. After getting suspended from an exclusive private school in our world, Mistaya is determined to resume her real education—learning sorcery from court wizard Questor Thews—whether her parents like it or not. Then, horrified that a repulsive Landover nobleman seeks to marry her, Mistaya decides that the only way to run her own life is to run away from home. So begins an eventful odyssey peppered with a formidable dragon, recalcitrant Gnomes, an inscrutable magic cat, a handsome librarian, a sinister sorcerer, and more than a few narrow escapes as fate draws Landover’s intrepid princess into the thick of a mystery that will put her mettle to the test—and possibly bring the kingdom to its knees. “Fans of Brooks’s magic kingdom of Landover will welcome this title. . . . There are plenty of treats.”—Publishers Weekly “Fun and engaging.”—Kirkus Reviews
