A Drop of Venom
Sajni Patel
Sixteen-year-old Manisha has spent years fleeing monsters, including jungle beasts and the King’s army, which scattered her naga people. Now a priestess at holy temples on floating mountains, she finds that sanctuary does not keep her safe. After a sexual assault, Manisha gains formidable powers. Pratyush, a monster slayer sent after her, does not know that the person he is pursuing is the girl he loves. This fantasy reworks the Medusa myth through Indian mythology.
