The Epic of Kautilya, a fantasy series inspired by Indian culture and history.
Can Princess Kautilya lead the greatest rebellion her nation has ever seen?
Born of a sacrifice to the gods, Princess Kautilya is the only daughter of the warrior king of Bharat. Her brothers, blessed with the traits of eagles, falcons and hawks, achieve renown across the empire, while she’s ridiculed for possessing the qualities of a parrot.
Kautilya’s life takes an unexpected turn when her family is betrayed. Now, in order to restore her father’s legacy—and claim the throne—she must organize the greatest rebellion her nation has ever seen.
But the enemy is always one step ahead, willing to go to any lengths to win. And her only allies are a group of misfits, plus a paltry army hidden in the forests.
Will Kautilya have her vengeance? Or is her burgeoning resistance doomed to fail?
