Bharata is in the midst of war, butВ Maya and her family live in relative comfort thanks to her father. Mayavati is one of many children of the Raja of Bharata. It is the story of Mayavati and is a retelling of a number of Indian folktales that also contains Hades and Persephone vibes. The Star-Touched Queen is the debut novel of Roshani Chokshi. Other than that, it is still a lovely story and I recommend it for those that loved The Star-Touched Queen. I cannot reason why this is the case, but I personally found it detracts from the story I would much rather it be all first or all third. While each chapter switches perspective between characters, GauriвЂ™s chapters are told in first person while VikramвЂ™s are in third. I believe IвЂ™ve mentioned before my dislike of first person told stories. The only thing that truly bothered me about the novel was the switching of perspectives. The prose remains as poetic as ever, but the story is different enough to make the reader believe it is altogether a different tale. While there are references and mentions that relate to itвЂ™s predecessor, A Crown of Wishes is itвЂ™s own story, but still rich in the magic and details of ChokshiвЂ™s previous work. But there are prices to be paidвЂ¦are they willing to pay them? And will they come out the same as they went into the tournament?ДЄ Crown of Wishes is both a sequel and a separate story from Roshani ChokshiвЂ™s previous novel, The Star-Touched Queen. If they win, Vikram can finally claim his right to the throne and Gauri can overthrow her brother. But to do so they will need to overcome demon fruit, their own fears, desires, a serpent king, and sirens who want to steal their souls. But Gauri doesnвЂ™t believe in magic, not since magic stole her sister Maya from her.The pair must reconcile their differences and work together to win the Tournament of Wishes.
