Girl with Three Eyes
Happy release day to
Priya Ardis!
Looking for a futurist fairytale with a strong female protagonist and political intrigue? Check out
Girl with Three Eyes!
She would hate her third eye less if it actually gave her specialpowers. But when a killer threatens the kingdom, will she risk her freedom?
Sixteen-year-old Kira puts on a show about having empathic abilities, but she miraculously wakes a highborn boy from a coma after a near-fatal accident on mountainous slopes. When his father threatens to expose her "magic" to the queen, she attends the kingdom's most elite academy as a bodyguard.
Soon, she's immersed in a strange new life--one of being a simple student trying out for the school's skyboarding team. Her fake life becomes the life she's always wanted, but Kira cannot escape who she truly is. Nothing in the court of the Raj is as it seems...Will she risk her freedom to unmask a killer before the crown falls?
Priya is absolutely delightful and I adore her Merlin Raj series so I loved the opportunity to work on this series with her!
Girl with Three Eyes is the first book in her new young adult fantasy series. It is a great blend of Hindu lore, adolescent life, and an intriguing adventure. Plus a skyboarding tournament that makes Quidditch look like Putt-Putt golf.
Definitely recommend for YA readers who like a hint of thriller with their fantasy!
