Set in the unified kingdom of Aryavarta, Emperor Yudhisthir and Empress Draupadi rule over an empire established by Govinda Shauri with the blessings of the Firstborn and the might of the Firewrights. However, the Firewrights, believed to be extinct, resurface with divided allegiances and purposes, threatening to unleash chaos upon the land. As sinister plans unfold and treacherous alliances emerge, Aryavarta transforms into its own worst enemy. Dharma Yudhisthir gambles away his empire, the tormented empress is forced into exile, and various nations within the realm begin to fight, conquer, and destroy each other. Govinda, left a broken man, realizes that the only way to protect Aryavarta and the woman in whose trusted hands he had left it is by playing a dangerous game. But can he bring himself to reveal the terrible secrets that the Vyasa has guarded all his life—secrets that may well destroy the Firstborn and the Firewrights with them?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1424\"\u003eAbout the Author: \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1426\" data-end=\"2177\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKrishna Udayasankar\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Singapore-based Indian author renowned for her modern retelling of the Mahabharata through \u003cem data-start=\"1542\" data-end=\"1568\"\u003eThe Aryavarta Chronicles\u003c\/em\u003e series, comprising \u003cem data-start=\"1588\" data-end=\"1597\"\u003eGovinda\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem data-start=\"1599\" data-end=\"1608\"\u003eKaurava\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem data-start=\"1614\" data-end=\"1627\"\u003eKurukshetra\u003c\/em\u003e.
