Fantasy
From international sensation Ashok K. Banker, pioneer of
the fantasy genre in India, comes the first book in a
ground-breaking, epic fantasy series inspired by the ancient
Indian classic, The Mahabharata
In a world
where demigods and demons walk among mortals, the Emperor of
the vast Burnt Empire has died, leaving a turbulent realm
without an emperor. Two young princes, Adri and Shvate, are
in line to rule, but birthright does not guarantee
inheritance: For any successor must sit upon the legendary
Burning Throne and pass The Test of Fire. Imbued with dark
sorceries, the throne is a crucible—one that incinerates the
unworthy.
Adri and Shvate pass The Test and are
declared heirs to the empire… but there is another with a
claim to power, another who also survives: a girl from an
outlying kingdom. When this girl, whose father is the
powerful demonlord Jarsun, is denied her claim by the
interim leaders, Jarsun declares war, vowing to tear the
Burnt Empire apart—leaving the young princes Adri and Shvate
to rule a shattered realm embroiled in rebellion and
chaos....
