Produktbeschreibung

Imagine a story where MacBeth meets Arabian Nights. Intrigued? Then please read on.

In a world where the old pantheon of gods and goddesses are no longer venerated, the forces of darkness are on the march. The rivers dry. The crops wither. Death and disease sweep over the lands.

All hope falls on the narrow shoulders of Prince Yaya who is told of a prophecy: unless the demon of drought is defeated, war for precious water will engulf the region and wickedness will prevail.

To help defeat the demon, the young prince must gather the elements necessary for the water cycle and present them to the god of rain as tribute. Only then might the deity prevail in his epic struggle against his arch nemesis.

But a quest already fraught with peril is made all the more dangerous by a recent coup in Yaya's kingdom. Behind the murderous plot is Queen Lilya, whose hatred for her grandchild fuels her desire to see him dead.

Chased by his grandmother's magic jackals, Yaya embarks on a race against time. His only help? A brown bear he befriends through the aid of a special elixir. Together they hurry to find the first element: the sacred waters of Anahita.

"The Springs of Anahita'' is the first book in the Yaya and the Water Wars trilogy. The story reflects the traditions, mythology, and religion of the Sasanian era of ancient Persia.

Besides the aforementioned works, my book will appeal to readers of fantasy in a manner similar to George R. R. Martin's, "A Game of Thrones," and S.A. Chakraborty's, "The City of Brass,"-the former for its palace intrigue and multiple storylines; the latter for its Mideast /South Asian inspired setting and mythologies.

Buy now to see if Yaya is able to fulfill his destiny.
