The Legend of Meneka

" The Legend of Meneka is a celebration of all that makes a story truly, wildly, and ecstatically epic. Rao''s prose hums with starlight and her dazzling reimagining deftly blends ancient philosophy with the story of a woman emerging into her own power. As befits a retelling of one of the most celebrated celestial nymphs in Hindu myth, this book is nothing short of resplendent." -- Roshani Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Tale of the Flower Bride "Sensual and thought-provoking, a romantic fantasy unlike any other." -- Shannon Chakraborty, New York Times bestselling author of The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi " The Legend of Meneka is a lustrously beautiful mythic romance, both empowering and seductive." -- Tasha Suri, World Fantasy Award-winning author of The Jasmine Throne "Enthralling and highly imaginative. . . A richly crafted story." -- Sue Lynn Tan, bestselling author of Daughter of the Moon Goddess , on The Surviving Sky "Intensely imaginative and heartbreakingly human . . . This is a story that is hard to put down." -- Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter , on The Surviving Sky "Sultry, powerful, and deeply felt, this is a wondrous tale of two lovers on opposing sides of a growing war between the human and the divine. Meneka is a driven and cunning protagonist who embodies all the strength of feminine intelligence and power, and I was entirely drawn into the world that Kritika H. Rao unravels out of ancient Indian myth and literature. Rao''s writing is utterly compelling, and I believe she will continue to be a powerful figure in speculative fiction." -- Hannah Kaner, #1 internationally bestselling author of Godkiller
