“Raises the bar for what epic fantasy should be.” -Chloe Gong, author of These Violent Delights “Lush and stunning…this sapphic fantasy will rip your heart out.” - BuzzFeed News “Will undoubtedly reshape the landscape of epic fantasy for years to come.”- Booklist (starred review)

And saving their kingdom from those who would rather see it burn will come at a terrible price. But Malini and Priya’s souls remain as entwined as their destinies. Their chosen paths once pulled them apart. But she doesn’t yet understand the truth of the magic she carries. Now a thrice born priestess and an Elder of Ahiranya, she dreams of seeing her country rid of the rot that plagues it: both Parijatdvipa’s poisonous rule, and the blooming sickness that is spreading through all living things. The power of the deathless waters flows through Priya’s blood. But even with rage in her heart and the army of loyal men by her side, deposing her brother is going to be a brutal and bloody fight. She is determined to claim the throne that fate offered her. The prophecy of the nameless god-the words that declared Malini the rightful empress of Parijatdvipa-has proven a blessing and curse. “Alluring, action-packed, and gut-wrenching,” (Publishers Weekly, starred review ), The Oleander Sword continues Tasha Suri’s acclaimed Burning Kingdoms trilogy, in which a powerful priestess and a vengeful princess will change the fate of an empire. Sequel to the Locus, British Fantasy Award and World Fantasy Award nominated The Jasmine Throne. Available From: Bookshop / Amazon ( US / UK) / Hachette / Waterstones / Barnes & Noble / IndieBound
