Exploring identity, class struggles, and high-stakes romance, Tanaz Bhathena's Hunted by the Sky is a gripping adventure set in a world inspired by medieval India.
Gul has spent her life running. She has a star-shaped birthmark on her arm, and in the kingdom of Ambar, girls with such birthmarks have been disappearing for years. Gulโs mark is what caused her parentsโ murder at the hand of King Loharโs ruthless soldiers and forced her into hiding to protect her own life. So when a group of rebel women called the Sisters of the Golden Lotus rescue her, take her in, and train her in warrior magic, Gul wants only one thing: revenge.
Cavas lives in the tenements, and heโs just about ready to sign his life over to the kingโs army. His father is terminally ill, and Cavas will do anything to save him. But sparks fly when he meets a mysterious girlโGulโin the capitalโs bazaar, and as the chemistry between them undeniably grows, he becomes entangled in a mission of vengeanceโand discovers a magic he never expected to find.
Dangerous circumstances have brought Gul and Cavas together at the kingโs domain in Ambar Fort...a world with secrets deadlier than their own.
