Más información sobre el libro

Before becoming known as the most jealous queen in Indian mythology, Kaikeyi, the only daughter of the kingdom of Kekaya, has her own story. Raised on tales of divine might and benevolence, she witnesses her mother’s banishment and realizes her worth is reduced to marriage prospects. When she seeks help from the gods, they remain silent. Yearning for independence, Kaikeyi turns to the texts she once shared with her mother and discovers a unique magic within herself. This newfound power transforms her from an overlooked princess into a warrior and diplomat, committed to creating a better world for herself and other women. However, as childhood demons threaten the cosmic order, her ambitions clash with the destiny the gods have set for her family, particularly her beloved son, Rama. Kaikeyi faces a pivotal choice: whether to resist the fate imposed upon her, knowing it may lead to destruction, and what legacy she wishes to leave behind. This debut reimagines Kaikeyi’s life, exploring themes of fate, family, courage, and heartbreak, as she strives to make her mark in a world dominated by gods and men.
