Descriere Aru Shah and the Tree of Wishes - Roshani Chokshi

\nBest-selling author Rick Riordan presents the third book in the best-selling Pandava series by Roshani Chokshi. \nWar between the devas and the demons is imminent, and the Otherworld is on high alert. Fourteen-year-old Aru Shah and her friends are sent on a mission to rescue two targets, one of whom is about to utter a prophecy that could mean the difference between victory and defeat. Turns out the targets, a pair of twins, are the newest Pandava sisters, though the prophecy says that one sister is not true. \nWhen the Pandavas fail to prevent the prophecy from reaching the Sleeper''s ears, the heavenly attendants ask them to step aside. Aru believes that the only way to put the shine back on their brand is to find the Kalpavriksha, the wish-granting tree that came out of the Ocean of Milk when it was churned. If she can reach it before the Sleeper, perhaps she can turn everything around with one wish. \nCareful what you wish for, Aru . . . \nPercy Jackson meets Sailor Moon in this enchanting, funny, and adventuresome series inspired by Hindu stories. \nPraise for the Pandava Series: *Chokshi seamlessly weaves Indian cosmology and pop culture into a refreshingly feminist plot laced with witty dialogue. The most compelling feature of the novel, however, is the complexity of its characters, who, despite their divinity or semidivinity, are at their core very human. This will leave fans enthralled and clamoring for more.--Kirkus Reviews (starred review) \nLook for these other fan favorites from Rick Riordan Presents: The Storm Runner by J.C.
