The rich and lyrical prose added so much to the magical element of The Star-Touched Queen. Also, Roshani Chokshi described the emotions of the characters amazingly. She has a way with words and beautifully described the many rooms in the palace which shone with light and marvel. Having read multiple Roshani Chokshi’s books, her writing has always drawn my attention. Yet who, besides her husband, can she trust? With the fate of the human and Otherworldly realms hanging in the balance, Maya must unravel an ancient mystery that spans reincarnated lives to save those she loves the most…including herself. Soon, Maya suspects her life is in danger. Desire…īut Akaran has its own secrets-thousands of locked doors, gardens of glass, and a tree that bears memories instead of fruit. As Amar’s wife, she finds something else entirely: Compassion. Neither roles are what she expected: As Akaran’s queen, she finds her voice and power. Soon Maya becomes the queen of Akaran and wife of Amar. Content to follow more scholarly pursuits, her whole world is torn apart when her father, the Raja, arranges a wedding of political convenience to quell outside rebellions. With a horoscope that promises a marriage of death and destruction, she has earned only the scorn and fear of her father’s kingdom. What does it take to be the queen of a kingdom when you’re only seventeen?
