Fantasy. Juvenile Fiction. Juvenile Literature. Mythology. HTML:Best-selling author Rick Riordan Presents the penultimate book in the Pandava series by best-selling author Roshani Chokshi. Aru Shah and her sisters�??including one who also claims to be the Sleeper's daughter�??must find their mentors Hanuman and Urvashi in Lanka, the city of gold, before war breaks out between the devas and asuras. Aru has just made a wish on the tree of wishes, but she can't remember what it was. She's pretty sure she didn't wish for a new sister, one who looks strangely familiar and claims to be the Sleeper's daughter, like her. Aru also isn't sure she still wants to fight on behalf of the devas in the war against the Sleeper and his demon army. The gods have been too devious up to now. Case in point: Kubera, ruler of the city of gold, promises to give the Pandavas two powerful weapons, but only if they win his trials. If they lose, they won't stand a chance against the Sleeper's troops, which will soon march on Lanka to take over the Otherworld. Aru's biggest question, though, is why every adult she has loved and trusted so far has failed her. Will she come to peace with what they've done before she has to wage the battle of her life? Filled with wondrous magic, unforgettable creatures, manipulative gods, and laugh-out-loud dialogue, this fourth book in the Pandava series, a fantasy adventure loosely based on mythology, will leave readers wishing they could read the finale right now… (més)

I really enjoyed this read and think it is my favorite book in the series to date. This book reminded me alot of the group quest elements that I adored in the percy jackson world. I loved how this book tackled indian mythology in so many ways and such a captivating way. I liked how the romance plot line is slowly developmentally though the read and finally pop a bit. It also added so new characters and dived in to the drama that occurred at the tale end of the previous book. It was really fast pace read and had a hard time putting it down. I am dying for last book. Aru really went through it in this book and loved where she wound up at the very end. (

Probably my favourite book of the Pandava series. Aru Shah is such a well-written and realistic character, and I loved seeing her conflicts with her sisters and Boo come to a head in this book.

I never really knew anything about the stories and culture of Hinduism, on account of being a white woman in North America, so reading these books has shown me a lot about a culture and people group not my own, and I really appreciate that. (

The Aru Shah/Pandava series continues to be a delight! Previously the series was advertised as a "quartet", but by the end of this one it seems clear it will be a quintet at least. Normally I dislike when series continue indefinitely, but I have to admit I'm looking forward to more of this one! (

Fantasy. Juvenile Fiction. Juvenile Literature. Mythology. HTML:Best-selling author Rick Riordan Presents the penultimate book in the Pandava series by best-selling author Roshani Chokshi.

Aru Shah and her sisters�??including one who also claims to be the Sleeper's daughter�??must find their mentors Hanuman and Urvashi in Lanka, the city of gold, before war breaks out between the devas and asuras.

Aru has just made a wish on the tree of wishes, but she can't remember what it was. She's pretty sure she didn't wish for a new sister, one who looks strangely familiar and claims to be the Sleeper's daughter, like her.

Aru also isn't sure she still wants to fight on behalf of the devas in the war against the Sleeper and his demon army. The gods have been too devious up to now. Case in point: Kubera, ruler of the city of gold, promises to give the Pandavas two powerful weapons, but only if they win his trials. If they lose, they won't stand a chance against the Sleeper's troops, which will soon march on Lanka to take over the Otherworld.

Aru's biggest question, though, is why every adult she has loved and trusted so far has failed her. Will she come to peace with what they've done before she has to wage the battle of her life?

Filled with wondrous magic, unforgettable creatures, manipulative gods, and laugh-out-loud dialogue, this fourth book in the Pandava series, a fantasy adventure loosely based on mythology, will leave readers wishing they could read the finale right now
