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"-- $c Provided by publisher. 521 $a Ages 8-12 $b Thorndike Press 521 $a Grades 4-6 $b Thorndike Press 650 $a Demonology $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Blessing and cursing $v Juvenile fiction. 610 $a Mythology, India $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Large print books for youth. 941 $a 2 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210723014615.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20210615010753.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FDECC03CCD9E11EB996D3DCB37ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
